13. Storing fat cells is also a defence against starvation
WHen people are in stress overload, the body doesn't know if it's from societal problems are a potatoe famine. I look at women who I know are working their asses off at manual labor jobs who are very large, and I wonder if the body is storing fat because it knows these women are under duress.
