Alicia Silverstone feeds her baby.

Silverstone, who's a vegetarian and animal rights advocate, posted the video on her website, thekindlife.com. The feeding method harkens reverse to some time before blenders and infant food in jars, when mothers needed to pre-chew babies’ food to get them happening on solids. Proponents of “premastication” say that, particularly in poor countries, the move away from the pre-chewing method deprives infants of crucial nutritional value and immune defenses.

But dental specialists caution that premastication can pass bacteria and dental diseases from mother to child.
