Actress and vegan advocate Alicia Silverstone wants to get one thing straight: Pregnancy does not have to be an unpleasant experience, wrought with bloating, swollen feet, exhaustion, and discomfort. The Kind Diet author is gearing up for the release of her upcoming book, The Kind Mama, a practical guide to cleaning out the gook in your body and preparing yourself for a pleasant, vibrantly healthy pregnancy.
The book—due out April 15, 2014—comes at an important time in history when one in six couples now experience trouble conceiving. The Kind Mama aims to supercharge fertility through targeted food and lifestyle choices, while helping parents make smarter choices during the baby's first six months of life—a critical time of a child's development.
