If you keep hearing things that aren't there, you're probably drinking too much coffee。
Just five cups a day could be enough to make your ears play tricks on you, according to researchers。
In an experiment, volunteers who had consumed "high levels" of caffeine thought they were listening to Bing Crosby singing White Christmas even though the song was not being played。
The researchers described caffeine as "the most commonly used psychoactive drug"。
They said the study showed that the health risks of too much coffee need to be addressed。
In the tests, 92 volunteers were asked to listen to a constant fuzzy sound known as white noise。
Professor Simon Crowe, of La Trobe University in Melbourne, said: "We also told them that within the white noise there may be parts of the song White Christmas and if you hear it, press a button. We didn't include White Christmas in the white noise but found that more people who were very stressed and had high levels of caffeine thought they heard the song."
The team from the university's School of Psychological Sciences found that five cups of coffee a day was enough to trigger this。
如果你总是幻听,可能是因为咖啡喝太多。
