I've read that there was a medieval idea that all the material in
a human's body was replaced over 7 years, and that this is where
the notion  that 21 should be the age of majority came from.
 Oddly enough, I have run into the assertion that every cell in the
body is replaced every 7 years. Perhaps it's simply an updated
version.
 Not all replaced at once, of course. Your "over 7 years" captures that
quite well.
There's a belief in an indestructible bone of
the human body.  Specifically, this is mentioned
by Judaism and Islam - with or without being
official - but apparently not in Christianity.
