Vegetarian Times magazine had the chance to do a Q & A with Alicia Silverstone for the holiday November/December 2009 issue.
As expected, Alicia had much to say about her new book, The Kind Diet, including the resources she used to provide data on the benefits of a plant based diet.
Alicia cited several well known vegetarian authors for The Kind Diet references.
“I can’t remember if it was Dr. Neal Barnard who blew my mind first or if it was John Robbins. I learned so much from Dr. Barnard’s books Food For Life and Foods That Fight Pain. John Robbins himself gave me a copy of The Food Revolution, which was his next book after Diet For a New America. I love how he lays it all out: “Here’s what they tell us and here’s the truth.” My newest hero is Dr. T. Colin Campbell, who wrote The China Study.”
You can read the entire interview with Alicia in the latest issue of Vegetarian Times on the stands now.

Comments Off on Abbie Cornish Sexiest Vegetarian Creates Press For Animals
Abbie Cornish recently spoke with LATimesmagazine.com where she revealed she hopes her title of Australia’s Sexiest Vegetarian will help her spread the news about animal rights.
Q: You were named by PETA as one of Australia’s sexiest vegetarians, and clearly you love animals. Does promoting “sexy vegetarianism” do anything to bring attention to animal rights?
A: Anytime anyone asks me that, I cross my fingers and think, I hope so. It creates press, and people who might not usually read about animal rights might take a look. It’s crazy, but I guess that’s the world we live in.
Abbie has already mentioned she’s always wanted to work with animals.
Could looking hot be the key to making change in the world?

Comments Off on Jeremy Piven Soy Milk Man Breasts
Actor Jeremy Piven is in the news alleging that soy milk might make him grow double D’s.
“I was the guy that dabbled in soya milk, but now I’ve found out soya milk has enough estrogen for me to grow breasts, I had to put the soya milk down.”
“It was a very confusing time.”
It might help to add that Piven isn’t exactly known for moderation, given the fact as a self described “fish eating vegetarian,” he ate so much seafood it gave him mercury poisoining.
There has been controversy surrounding the risk of soy products to males.
But often the problems are discovered in those that tend to consume large amounts of the protein.
In fact, in one documented case of gynecomastia (medical term for big man boobs) found the subject in question drank as much as 3 quarts of soy milk a day.
That’s 12 cups a day.
How on earth did he ever find time to look for a good bra?
Bottom line is, you can overdo a good thing.
And men, if you’re that afraid of developing your own vegan chichis, drink some rice or almond milk instead.

Comments Off on Warren G Might “Regulate” With Vegan Diet
All you hip hop children of the 90s will be happy to learn Warren G has released his 7th album, The G Files.
But this isn’t the 90s anymore and G Funk is getting older just like the rest of us and he’s seriously rethinking his lifestyle, especially since his Regulate mate Nate Dogg experienced a stroke in his 30s.
From omaha.com:
Q. How’s Nate Dogg (who suffered his second stroke of the year in September)?
A. He’s in slow recovery … in therapy. He’s progressing real good. We’re praying for a fast recovery.
Q. Did his stroke come as a shock?
A. It was an eye-opener for everyone. We’re all getting older. When you hit 40, I’m not 40 yet, but when I do that’s when it’s time to think about all these diseases like prostate cancer. I’m going to have my system clean. Hey, I might become a vegan. You never know. I need to exercise more. Right now I’ve been eating a little bad lately. I had McDonald’s the other day. I don’t have too much fried food. When we do cook fried food at home, I try to cook it in olive oil.
Q. You know it wasn’t just the fried food that got Nate.
A. Yeah. But we all need to take better care of ourselves. Once Nate gets up and running, he needs to.
Regulate that olive oil, man.

Comments Off on Lamar Odom Caught Leaving Vegetarian Restaurant
Is Lamar Odom a veghead?
The basketball player and newlywed husband to Khloe Kardashian was spotted leaving a vegetarian restaurant recently by an X17 reporter.
Lamar and Khloe did attend the Stop Puppy Mills Humane Society event.
Sure would be great if another animal loving vegetarian athlete came out with a veg PSA that’s more viral than his sister-in-law’s sex tape.
Oh, no. We did not go there.
