Very little of what is your body now will remain in a few years. That’s less terrifying than it sounds because we replace bits of ourselves on a constant basis. With every breath we lose carbon that may have been in us for years. Every bathroom visit contains not just food remnants but little bits of ourselves that have already been replaced and broken down.
About the only things that don’t get some level of replacement are our teeth and the floaters in our eyes.
