Abstract :

With camel milk trending in the Huffington Post, Christina Adams MFA, an international speaker with a compelling personal story, is available; â??The unofficial spokesperson for camel milkâ? Good magazine. Since author Christina Adams began investigating camel milk for her son in 2005, increasing evidence of its usefulness as an autism dietary intervention and scientific properties for diseases like diabetes, food allergies and more have emerged. Camel milk is a non-invasive, natural and accessible dietary intervention that appeals to families. Camel milk has become a global parent portal to autism treatment and awareness, as families in the early stages of autism read Adamsâ?? publications online and connect to her seeking help. The author guides families to resources such as ABA, speech, OT, medical care and parental connections, as seen in UAE, India, Israel, Saudi Arabia and USA (plus Somali and Gypsy communities in the US). The authorâ??s professional publications have inspired the camel milk industry in several countries, creating job growth; a positive and engaging blend of science, unique story and inspiration. The power of positive global change plus parental education and intuition will be emphasized.
