No, radioactive isotopes are not good for any diet. Radioactive isotopes are radioactive, which means they have unstable atomic nuclei. These unstable nuclei will, sooner or later, decay, and they will emit some kind(s) of radiation in the process. Radiation can damage biological material, and that's not good for any living thing. We generally are subject to a bit of natural radiation all the time. It's the natural background radiation. But we work to avoid any "extra" exposure because it can be hazardous to our health.
We do use radioactive isotopes in nuclear medicine and associated procedures. But in these cases, the benefit is worth any small risk. Exposure to radiation in medicine is carefully calculated and monitored by the professionals who work with it.
What else can I help you with?
What are isotopes considered radioactive?
Not all isotopes are radioactive; the radioactive isotopes are unstable and emit radiations.
How are radioactive isotopes different from isotopes?
Both isotopes and radioactive isotopes are pretty much the same but radioactive isotopes are better because it can be used to make medicine.
Does radioactive isotopes have a stable nuclei?
Radioactive isotopes are not stable.
Does sodium contain radioactive isotopes?
Sodium has no radioactive isotopes.
Does plutonium have isotopes that are all radioactive?
All the uranium isotopes are radioactive.
What happens to all radioactive isotopes?
All radioactive isotopes will disintegrate.
Are all isotopes of francium radioactive?
All isotopes of francium are radioactive.
Isotopes which have unstable nucleus and break down at a constant rate over time?
radioactive isotopes! :)
What are Radioactive isotopes used for?
Some examples are deuterium and tritium which are radioactive isotopes of hydrogen.
Does Barium have isotopes that are all radioactive?
No, Barium has both stable and radioactive isotopes. Out of its 25 known isotopes, only 6 of them are considered radioactive. The most stable isotope of Barium is Barium-138, which is not radioactive.
Are all transition elements are radioactive?
Not all of the transition elements are radioactive. Many of them are, and some of them have common radioactive isotopes, but some of them have no naturally occurring radioactive isotopes. Please note that all elements have synthetic radioactive isotopes, at least.
Why is silver radioactive?
Silver itself is not radioactive. However, certain isotopes of silver can be radioactive. For example, silver-108 and silver-110 are radioactive isotopes with long half-lives that can undergo radioactive decay. These isotopes are not commonly found in nature.
