Australian study: more than 5 cups of coffee a day can easily hear voices

Stressed people who drink more than five cups of coffee a day are prone to auditory hallucinations. A research team from the Department of Psychology at La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia found that people who were stressed and addicted to coffee were three times more likely to have auditory hallucinations and hallucinations than others.

The study took 92 people as subjects and recorded their coffee intake and psychological stress. Then let them listen to the "white noise" for 3 minutes (refers to the noise from radio and television noise). And told the 92 people, "White noise" mixed with an old song "White Christmas", as soon as you hear "White Christmas", press the button as soon as you hear it. But in fact, there are no songs in "White noise".

The results showed that people with low caffeine intake had an average of only one button, while those with high stress and coffee drinkers had an average of three, indicating that people who were stressed and liked coffee were more likely to have auditory hallucinations.

People who drank five cups of coffee a day were defined as heavy coffee drinkers in the study. A similar situation may occur if you take too much caffeine-containing drugs.
