The subjects were then given food kicked up with capsaicin, which puts the heat in chili peppers. They were asked to rate how much they liked the spicy meal as the burn from the compound increased.

实验者随后食用提取自辣椒的辣椒素,并且强度越来越大,=ytT5g~7C~Kt9Q1TGK,。他们被要求评估随着辣味的加强,他们对麻辣食物的喜爱程度VFqkWZouy#Q-(z#Qg|

Those volunteers who rated high on having a sensation-seeking personality continued to enjoy the meal as the burn intensified. Non-sensation seekers couldn’t take the heat and eschewed rather than chewed. A third group of mild thrill seekers did not like the spicy meal either, but not nearly as much as those with risk-averse personalities.

那些打分更高的有寻求刺激性格的实验者随着辣味的增强,仍然享受食物H&5%DT.jTdZ@,2_58jX。非寻求刺激性格的实验者则受不了辣味,他们避免食用麻辣食物nBgA;8%gEw。第三组是相对温和的刺激寻求者,他们也不喜欢麻辣食物,但是比那些非寻求刺激者更好一点qJ)f+#e,pW]0ZO

The researchers say that people who enjoy risky behavior including gambling or thrill rides might be getting the same kind of danger rush when biting into a hot pepper. Just be sure to digest all that spicy food before hitting the roller coaster.
