Kendall Jenner painted her living room this shade of pink because apparently it suppresses your appetite

Okay.

Supermodel Kendall Jenner has painted her living room a very specific shade of pink because apparently the colour acts as an appetite suppression. She wrote about the decision on her blog. “I decided to paint it pink because while I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do with the room, I went to dinner with friends and they had just gone to the Human Condition exhibition at a former hospital in L.A.,” wrote Kendall. “Baker-Miller Pink is the only color scientifically proven to calm you and suppress your appetite. I was like, ‘I need this color in my house.’ ”

According to The Guardian, the theories about the colour come from a series of experiments conducted in the 1970s by Alexander G Schauss, of the American Institute for Biosocial Research. Schauss looked at the effect the colour had on mood and behavior after 15 minutes. A commander (Baker) and a warden (Miller) at the Washington State Department of Corrections agreed to paint the ceilings of a correctional facility this colour and found that exposure to it caused a short-term decrease in aggression. Subsequent experiments also concluded this shade could also act as a natural appetite suppressant. Further studies by Dr. James E. Gilliam, and Dr. David Unruh note that while the described effects of Baker-Miller pink are impressive, the scientific research to support them is limited.
