Not really. The CNN article is basically a more approachable summary of the Nature article with some insight from the scientists involved. All the article says is that fattening food is addictive, and that, as a result, some of the same techniques used to get people away from narcotic addiction could be used here. Much in the same way that a narcotic addiction isn't easy to get away from, an eating disorder is not either. The problem arises when people downplay the difficulty involved to a triviality.
