The Karen Vasquez Show: S1 EP 5: Guest Dr. Rebecca Bevans

Hi Everyone!

This week I welcome psychologist, Dr. Rebecca Bevans. Dr. Bevans holds a Ph.d in Cognitive Neuroscience, and a Masters degree in Human Development. She is an expert in how physiological states can affect psychological perception.

On today’s episode we talk about her 2016 TedTalk, The Effects Of Artificial Food Dyes. In her TedTalk Dr. Bevans shares the personal story about her son, Alex, and how artificial food dyes effected his behavior. The types of behavior issues included not just anger but aggressive meltdowns ( some times they were violent), and by the age of seven things had become so bad Alex was suicidal.

After removing foods containing certain artificial dyes Alex’s behavior saw dramatic improvement. Dr. Bevans shares how it happened. Tune in, like and share.

We also talk about the next Art Deco Comedy Hour. The Art Deco Comedy Hour is a monthly stand up comedy showcase. I produce this show at the historical American Legion Post 43 in Hollywood, CA. The show features stand up comedians from all over the world!

Tickets to the Art Deco Comedy Hour are free but donations are always encouraged. Make plans now to join us at 8 PM on June 15th. Get your FREE ticket here! Search for ART DECO COMEDY HOUR.

The American Legion’s Post 43 is located in the heart of Hollywood, CA. Hollywood Post 43 is “part of the American Legion, the nation’s largest wartime veterans organization devoted to serving vets, youth and the community.” It’s also a great venue for live stand up comedy!
