'YOU'RE glowing' is what some people tell others when they look particularly happy or beautiful. But is it true that our bodies literally glow too? Verdict: TRUE It's true - you do shine, literally!

In 2009, Japanese scientists were able to capture the first ever pictures of "glittering" human bodies or human "bioluminescence". 'Although it has been known for many years that all living creatures produce a small amount of light as a result of chemical reactions within their cells, this is the first time light produced by humans has been captured on camera,' reads an article on The Guardian news website.
