Did you know there are two types of fat cells?

There are brown fat cells and white fat cells. Scientists believe brown fat cells are better to have if you don’t want to be obese. Brown fat cells can quickly convert to muscle. Conventional white fat cells are are just stubborn and do not want to move, other than some jiggling.

Scientifically speaking brown fat cells release energy and the sunofapup white fat cells store energy. Storing things in your body is generally bad. You want to be moving things in and out.

So why do I bring up this whole brown fat versus white fat thing? Brown fat is in the news this week and I encourage you to read it the latest reasearch about it here.

Scientists believe if you can encourage the brown fat cell to stay…  you’ll be leaner.

To encourage my brown fat cells to stay I’M going to tell MY brown fat cells that the school system is excellent, I’ll point out the lovely parks, and explain that wood six-panel doors are standard. The brown fat cells will surely feel right at home.

So what does this mean for our diets? Nothing. The knowledge will enhance the lives our great grandchildren as they zoom around in flying cars powered by dandelions.

But it’s still good, I am of the belief that the more we know about our fat, be it brown or white, the more we know what wine to serve with it.
