The Science of Wearing Red

RED

Hard science has demonstrated that wearing red is consistently associated with a higher probability of winning in sporting events. Seeing a lot of red makes our hearts beat faster and according to at least one source, wearing red makes us appear heavier. Used in moderation, like say one medium sized image on a website landing page, red can be very eye-catching.

Astrology is not a real science, but I am going to include a short quote from an astrology site about people who like red. It is for entertainment purposes only:

A person who likes red can express many personality traits. The positive ones being passion, energy, and money making. The darker manifestations of those who favor reddish-brown colors can be addictions such as drugs, alcohol, eating disorders or emotional instability.
