Not sure what is "high-fat food." I guess that any food might cause some insulin release but I'd expect fats to release the least.

Allow me to translate above article:

getting fat makes you get even more fat even faster.

I thought food with fat in it produced a feeling of satiety, while high carb food is slow to trigger the okay, had enough feeling.

It wouldn’t surprise me if institutional politics had a role in these findings.

This is either a very poory written article, or it's designed to hide the known fact that what matters is what type of food you eat the fat with.

With a protein and vegetables meal - and no heavy carbs - it's how you lose body fat, with exercise.

With a heavy carbs and vegetables meal - and no protein - it's how you lose body fat, with exercise.

But -while mixing protein and heavy carbs? While not getting enough vegetables? As a part of cookies and cakes? Without exercise? Different story.

The consumption of high-fat food causes more insulin to be released by the pancreas

compared to what ?

An over indulgence in High Carbohydrate food
causes massive insulin release.

Causing storage as fat.

Say what? Fats are not carbs. Carbs are sugars which trigger insulin.

The more I eat, the more I want to eat, so I don't eat much. There are those times though when BAM, right out of nowhere, I'm hungry. I knew it was my stupid brain doing it.

Either I misread the article or everyone else here did.

My understanding is this...

If you have a certain gene, and you get fat, then there is a change in the way your body&brain reacts to insulin. If you have the gene, and you are fat, and you eat a meal of fat, your brain reacts to insulin in a weird way that causes you to get hungry and eat more and get fatter and fatter and eat more and more and get fatter and fatter.

ie it instigates a vicious cycle.
