It can be a lot of things. Both because I’m not a professional dietician and because this is ELI5, I will make some very broad, generalized statements that may not reflect every possible individual case.

If someone is overweight, they probably need to focus on not eating bad food. Lower calorie intake while still getting the nutrients needed to survive.

If someone is underweight, they probably need to focus on eating good food. Nutrient-rich foods that pack more energy and useful stuff into the same volume and may even be high in fat which would make it a poor choice for the first category.
