Historical photograph of a female prisoner in a state of severe malnutrition. Food rations in concentration camps were deliberately insufficient, causing slow death by starvation. Prisoners received about 1300 calories per day while consuming over 3000 for forced labor, leading to progressive physical deterioration.
