Vegetarian Star

“I wanted people to have an opportunity to really be kind to themselves—once and for all, have everything they ever dreamed of, like the strongest immune system, the most beautiful skin, increased energy so they are just so vital, and reduced risk of illness—from the really scary ones like cancer, heart disease, diabetes and arthritis to allergies and asthma. The great news is that in that process you are also being kind to the planet and also kind to other creatures and also kind to children and people of the world who have no food. So it really just sums up what is possible through our food choices.”

—Alicia Silverstone, during an interview with Gourmet Live on her book, The Kind Diet. The entire interview with Gourmet Live is available through the free Gourmet Live app, which can be downloaded here.

Alicia Silverstone spoke with the Wall Street Journal about her book The Kind Diet.

It’s no secret eating healthy isn’t always cheap, but when you compare the cost of good produce now to cardiac problems and other food related diseases later in life, you’ll find the investment pays off.

Alicia gave some tips on making a healthy, vegan diet work, even if you’re on a budget.

WSJ: Sometimes organic and specialty foods can be more expensive. Do you have any advice for people on a budget?

Alicia: You can do this and this will be cheaper – unless you’re eating at Mc Donald’s everyday. I cant argue with that, cause that’s just cheap. I think it can be a lot cheaper because steak and meat are really expensive. When you start shopping at a local farmer’s market, the food is really inexpensive because it’s in season. At the end of the day, after you take away all of the nasty foods and add the good foods, your grocery bill will level out.

“Nasty” foods being processed, sugar filled-usually things that are already prepared, thus costing more money anyway.

Alicia Silverstone was recently on the The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson to talk about her new vegan diet and lifestyle book, The Kind Diet.

The lights went out during the interview segment, leaving both Alicia and Craig to chit chat by flashlight.

During the interview, Craig turned to Alicia’s Pecan Crusted Seitan recipe and was horrified!

“Seitan!” Craig said, and then proceeded to do a ritual over Alicia’s head mocking the removal of evil spirits.

Did the powers of seitan cause the lights to go out? Actually, it was probably the strong winds (70mph) that have been reported in the greater Los Angeles area.

“You can’t go eating stuff called seitan. Are you mad?” Craig asks.

The Kind Diet

All this week, we’re hosting a giveaway and three of our lucky readers will receive a free copy of Alicia Silverstone’s new vegan diet and lifestyle book, The Kind Diet.

Every day until the end of the contest, we’re bringing you a few of Alicia’s thoughts on The Kind Diet, with a reminder to leave a comment to enter to win.

Today Alicia gives her thoughts on more people adopting vegetarian diets, full or part time.

“When I first started this lifestyle it was still being viewed as something extreme or rebellious. But in recent years I feel as if there’s been a shift. As we’re becoming more and more aware of how our food systems are broken (thanks to some great books and documentaries), the idea that adopting a plant-based diet is something that can make us all healthier (both as individuals and as a planet) has really been gaining traction. So, I feel like this is the perfect time for The Kind Diet. The Kind Diet was written with the understanding that people are coming to this from many diff places (meat-eaters who just want really great skin to vegetarians looking to lose weight–to junk-food junkies looking to save the planet) and we need to offer them varying points of entry. Even little steps in the direction of a plant-based diet can be life-changing. And it’s important that people understand that they needn’t be hard on themselves during the course of this journey–we’re all human and we all “slip-up” but have an inspiring direction to head in is a great start.”

Alicia Silverstone appeared on View from the Bay to discuss The Kind Diet vegan diet and fitness book.

Alicia discussed the three steps of immersing oneself in the vegan diet, which she calls “flirting” “vegan” and “superhero.”

Alicia says she started flirting after her brother made lamb sounds while she was eating.

Yeah, nothing like a reality check from the sibling.

The Kind Diet

All this week, we’re hosting a giveaway and three of our lucky readers will receive a free copy of Alicia Silverstone’s new vegan diet and lifestyle book, The Kind Diet.

Every day until the end of the contest, we’re bringing you a few of Alicia’s thoughts on The Kind Diet, with a reminder to leave a comment to enter to win.

Today, Alicia explains how The Kind Diet is different from other diets.

“The Kind Diet doesn’t ask people to freak out about calories, carbs or the glycemic index. It will change their relationship with food and their bodies, transforming the whole idea of dieting for them while helping them to lose weight easily, attain glowing skin, increased energy & strength, as well as a more-efficient immune system. The bottom line is–the food we choose is not the only factor in our health and well-being, but it’s definitely one of the most important—and, luckily, it’s one we have control over.”

And with recipes like “Waffle, Sausage, and Cheese Panini” who said anything about a “diet?”
