For that glow in the dark look

Did you know that bananas are radioactive. Due to being rich in potassium, every banana is actually slightly radioactive thanks to containing the natural isotope potassium-40. Interestingly, your body contains around 16mg of potassium-40, meaning you’re around 280 times more radioactive than a banana already.

Any excess potassium-40 you gain from a banana is excreted out within a few hours.
