When people who can’t stop themselves from gaining weight sit down to eat, their endocrine system responds in the exact opposite way. Their fullness hormones dry up and vanish. That leaves them eating and eating but never feeling full.

Without hormones to curb their cravings, something like Cheetos could drive them mad with desire, which leaves them extremely vulnerable to processed foods.
