What would be some possible effects, positive or negative, on life expectancy, if you genetically altered humans and animals to be able to digest and incorporate plastic into their physical makeup?

What effects would being made partially of plastic have on aging, damage resistance, strength, etc?
It would greatly reduce the problem of plastic waste, if you could just eat it.
