The holidays are a time for eating: pies at Thanksgiving, chocolates for Advent and overflowing gift baskets of cookies and candies through the New Year. If you’re having trouble saying no to the bounty of fat and sugar, give yourself a break: your willpower may be no【S1】______for brain pathways that make overeating—much like drug-taking—feel so good.
In one study by researchers at the University of Pennsylvania, mice that were fed a high-fat diet during the first 20 weeks of life and had become【S2】______showed significant and lasting changes in brain areas【S3】______in reward—making the brain less responsive to the same fatty foods. The researchers said the effects were【S4】______to those seen in drug addiction. In another study from Concordia University in Montreal, researchers found that hungry rats sought heroin when food was not there.

"Drug addiction is really【S6】______some of these pathways that evolved to promote food【S7】______for survival reasons," Ralph DiLeone, associate professor of psychiatry at Yale University.
So is food really【S8】______, like a drug? That’s still not clear, but it’s likely that compulsive overeating probably bears some【S9】______to addiction.
