Anything that is not a genetic 'construction' is classified as environment, or 'nurture'.This means that once we are conceived with a set of genetics - our 'structure', anything that affects us after this time is environment, including prenatal development.

There is a famous case in Holland during the second world war (The Dutch Famine), where prenatal development was undernourished due to a famine, resulting in very high cases of Diabetes and Heart disease during middle age (and some depression, addiction and varied other mental illness).
