Nourishment isn't artificial.

Air isn't artificial either. But being kept alive in an iron lung is.

The fact is being feed through a feeding tube hooked up to a machine is artificial.

By definition these things are artificial. Anyone who has a living will ruling out their being sustained on a machine includes all these means.
