To be even more technical. You are being reincarnated constantly.

We shed skin and cells and those become something else while our own body rebuilds itself constantly from other life.

The only cells in the body that dont change out are neurons and sensory receptors.

A lot of proteins stay forever though. Like bones, teeth, and probably a lot of proteins in muscles. A lot of others I'm not listing.

But the cells themselves are always dying and being remade (except neurons and receptors).

    I've been vegan for over a decade, so with constant cell regrowth I'm photosynthesis with extra steps.
