Yes, food.
Maybe if you payed attention in your science and health class, you wouldn't be asking this question.

Human fat is produced to protect the body two different ways. You have a fat layer of tissue called the adipose layer which exists to protect your body from externally and is required for proper health and function. Also, you have a dynamic amount of fat cells that your body produces to protect itself internally from toxins. The level of your toxicity directly correlates to the amount of fat your body retains.

Human fat is stored calories. Basically, if you consume more calories than you burn in one day, your body stores them as an energy source for times when food may be scarce. It is a natural survival mechanism.

you are genetically born with an alloted number of fat cells, although you can increase this number and their individual size by poor diet and lack of excerise.
