Passage –C
 Where does our warmth come from?

However, we would be badly off it had to depend only on the sun a fire or a hot bath for warmth. The fact is we make the warmth ourselves, and it comes from our food. Our food is burned inside our bodies. Burning requires oxygen, which comes from the air that we breathe. Food and oxygen together burn to create warmth.
