1- Stop yelling.
2- Stop being a picky eater. You are not a child.
3- Check out the sports and training section.
4- Check out bodybuilding.com

Anything in excess is bad for you.
If it's not the only thing you're eating, I don't see the problem...but it shouldn't be the only fruit you eat.
Also, google would probably be more helpful than us.

On a side note, I'm a fan of ellipses too, but you OD.

From someone who eats 35-40 bananas a week, you won't get fat or have a heart attack. 1) Your body will regulate the potassium 2) You basically need to abuse a potassium supplement to overdose or have kidney/liver problems prior. 5 bananas a day is still not reaching the upper limit of potassium RDA.

If you're doing any type of endurance activity, a banana is your best friend. Eat as many as you'd like. Always make sure your bananas are ripe though (brown spots, soft) for easy digestion. And always eat them on an empty stomach; it's a sugary fruit so it doesn't need long to digest, make sure your digestive tract is clear before you eat them.

Drink a lot of coconut juice. It helps your body excrete the excess potassium.
