Without oxygen, your body will die. If you die, you have no need for food. Food does not contain oxygen that could be used in this case.

What does decaying matter in water bodies cause?

Decaying matter is natural in a body of water, it is natural in any environment. However a large amount of decaying matter in a body of water could lead to a dead zone. This is because if there is a disruption in the food web of that body of water it could kill many organisms. If many animals die, the decaying takes more oxygen out of the water than can be replaced and you are left with a body of water that has no oxygen called a dead zone.
