Are we not to believe that if the gene that predisposes the timeline of our life, that there are no other factors? That the elelments surrounding us have no effect on encouraging the aging process. To alter ourselves internally, still leaves the environment? We will still have to take the products of natural processes into consideration (water, air, stone and clay). We breathe and move in these molecular structures daily. We would in a sense be a foreign matter living in a typical and complex world.
