The answer can be found on the minecraft wiki page on hunger.

If you have 90%-100% food you will regain health slowly, but if you have 0% you will lose health instead. On easy the player's health would slowly drop to 5 hearts, 0.5 hearts on normal, and all the way to death on hard.

  • In other words, when your food bar falls to 0, in hard mode your health bar does indeed reduce to 0 (death), but in easy and normal modes, it only reduces to a minimum value of 5 and 0.5 respectively, after which it stops (course having minimal health makes it easier to die from other things).
