several small lipid (fat) droplets and a large number of iron-containing

blood tiny blood vessels, gives this fat its brownish appearance.
GOOD FAT: MUCH AS POSSIBLE
White:
accumulates around the hips, thighs, buttocks, and breasts until
perimenopause, redistributed to the abdomen as well.

during external interactions with our environment
-It is a major endocrine organ, producing one form of estrogen as well as

calories of energy storage.
