So, the body adapts to its environment. If it takes in a lot of food, it gets fat, etc.
What if we were to only consider the times the body rejected the environment, the times it resisted it?
Like the 100-year-old person who smokes or drinks. Or the person who doesn't get fat, albeit he eats as much as an obese person. Or the person who swallows poison and it doesn't harm them. Such a study would be interesting.
I do wonder about the body's ability to build up immunities, and I wonder if there are ways the body rejects harmful environments beyond what we discuss as building up immunities. I wish someone would study of this, analyzing incidents and what has caused them.
