I know, this acronym stands for both and you need to know the context!
So funny, bubsmiley!
But you are actually absolutely right - I starved myself to anorexia at age 19 and I did have low drive then. So yes, you are right. This is because sex is optional for physical survival and food is not optional, so when a person is starved, the body stops running optional processes.
But I have heard of the opposite as well - I have heard of obesity causing erectile dysfunction in men. So there must be some sweet spot in-between.
