Answer:

Underweight people:

  • often suffer from health problems, such as poor immune system

  • have lack of energy, and are frequently tired

  • are likely to suffer from lack of vitamins and minerals

Explanation:

Some people don't eat enough food. In extreme cases, this is known as starvation. If the energy in the food is less than the energy you need, you will loose body mass. This becomes being underweight.
