Deprive of nourishment (6)
I believe the answer is:
starve
'deprive of nourishment' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for starve that I've seen before include "Die from lack of food" , "Suffer from want of food" , "Die of hunger" , "Go without food" , "Suffer great hunger" .)
