Here are a few excerpts:

On The Kind Diet Book:

Alicia Silverstone Recommends Farmers’ Markets For Cheap Veg Eating

Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, April 30th, 2009 in Actresses, Food & Drink.

2009 Heart Of Green Awards

Emily Deschanel is not the only vegan actress to enjoy her local farmers’ market.

Alicia Silverstone recently interviewed with Glamour Magazine where she answers some questions about her vegan diet and lifestyle.

It’s no secret that fresh, organic produce and other staples of a vegetarian or vegan diet aren’t always cheap. Alicia gave some tips for making the transition easier on your pocketbook.

“The best way to save money is to go to a Farmer’s Market. Buy seasonal produce [that is grown locally]. It’s really, really cheap. I spend anywhere from $40 to $60 a week on produce. And that feeds my husband, my dogs, and me. My other grocery bill is a little bit more expensive, but that’s because I like making decadent desserts.”

“I would say to people who are concerned: I don’t go to the doctor; I don’t buy any prescriptions, antacids, or birth control. I don’t suffer from any illnesses. Consider it an investment for your health. And save money on other things. I look to eBay or Craigslist for deals on things to save money. Also, buy what you can in bulk.”

2009 Heart Of Green AwardsAlicia Silverstone recently spoke with Ecorazzi.com about vegetarianism and her new vegan diet book, The Kind Diet, coming out in the fall.

Alicia teamed up with members of the Physician’s Committee For Responsible Medicine to incorporate solid medical advice into the plan.

You have a new book coming out called The Kind Diet. Tell me about what we can expect to see in it?

Yes, I’m so excited! It really feels like the most artistic expression of myself because it’s everything I’ve wanted to say for a very long time. Every time I worked on it my heart just opened up.

It’s called The Kind Diet and it’s about being kind to yourself and the planet at the same time. It really breaks down Eastern philosophy versus Western philosophy in terms of health. I bring in all the doctors so you can understand the medical and scientific approach and know it’s not just some ditzy girl talking about this stuff.
