Silverstone would like to know how a vegan diet contributed to their pregnancies, if any.

“As I write my next book The Kind Mama, I’m looking for anecdotes to feature from members of The Kind Life! You guys are so important to me, especially because I started TheKindLife.com at the same time my book The Kind Diet was published,” writes Silverstone.
