If I might add : If we are divine in origin and eternal as intelligence then it is this mortal coil which is what we eat, and our mortal sojourn is a growth phase which has tremendous impact on our eternal progress. The choices we make as to what to eat, shape us not only for mortality but for eternity as our thinking and intelligence develops.
These decisions, it has been shown, also change our genetics and together with their influence on our families and others, affect the future of a potentially unlimited host of future beings.
