Just got off a three day cleanse and after reading an article in Healthy Living about your book, decided to buy it. Opened my eyes! Not ready to throw away my furs and leather shoes, but there is no doubt that already my diet has changed. Thanks for opening my eyes and making this topic so accessible -  yes you are a delightful actress to watch - but I think you have found your true calling! Congratulations on your book and what I am quite sure will be a catalyst for significant change. Kudos!
So I just watched the Food inc. movie and now I just read this great book. So I'm so interested in starting my new way of eating life. Today I emptied my fridge.....well really I ate everything to get rid of it. So tomorrow I have to hide all the chocolate and give it to my husband. I am so bad with will power I wish I had some buddies here.  This is going to be probably if I can do it the most amazing thing I'll ever do. Thanks! 
OK! Any suggestions to get a DVD of Food, Inc.? I want to see it! Even Martha Stewart had that guy on her show, I have the HD Antenna, and of course got to the good part, and lost the signal? Figures!....
try netflix.com they have all kinds of dvd's.
Wow, I'm loving this website and community and i just signed in for the first time!!  I have been vegetarian for two years and I want to go vegan so I have just read the The Kind Diet and am getting very excited about the next step in my journey of a healthier, happy life. It will be awesome to have this community to help.

I was reading the book and my daughter just happened to text me from health food store, so I gave her a list of things.....plum vinegar, butter substitute, miracle whip substitute, gomashio, flaxseed oil, .....$55 later

Ms Silverstone,Many years ago I saw you on a talk show and thought "wow, that is one impressive lady."  When I saw that you had published a book I was not surprised. I am very pleased that you are sharing your knowledge. I wish you great success. I am hoping my family will be inspired to make some changes. (baby steps)  My husband is a HUGE Paul McCartney Fan. Perhaps if I will show him that Paul gave you the thumbs up he will embrace the kind life. He already has a kind soul,  he works in Boston as a heart doctor, all your information on Coronary Artery Disease is 100% correct. Be Well. Carry On.  :)

Chez la mere- it can be more expensive, that is one of the reasons i justified for a long time to continue my diet as it was. But then i realized you dont have to buy specialty ingredients to live this way. You can find most of the items or an equivalent in most grocery stores. You can alter any recipe in any way, just make it so it tastes good to you!

who is the designer/label of that black spaghetti strap dress/top.

 

love it!

I can't wait to get started on this journey!~

I have read the first part of the book and your research has made an impact on me. In the back of my mind, I have wanted to better my spiritual self and the world and didn't know how. But by slowing reading, meditating and understanding that we as individuals have to start with ourselves, I am beginning to improve my life. Thank you Alicia for caring so much to share this book with others.  

Welcome, everyone! :)))
