Science Says That Redheads are Superheroes

Science Says That Redheads are Superheroes

Redheads unite!

A woman named Erin La Rosa has recently published her book The Big Redhead Book: Inside the Secret Society of Red. In her book, she explains that natural redheads need to be proud of being red-haired. She also notes that there’re many biological benefits to being ginger.

Erin reveals many interesting facts about being a redhead. She points out that they’re the “unicorns of the human world”.

What’s more, she also thinks that they’re blessed in a more important way. She says that according to research, redheads can handle pain more effectively than others, because of the MC1R gene mutation that gives their hair its color. Additionally, a 2003 McGill University study shows that women who have natural red hair tend to tolerate about twenty-five percent more pain compared to women who do not have natural red hair.
