My original question: Has anyone heard of a connection between gluten intolerance and scoliois? I've got 2 daughters both tested positive by EnteroLab and both with scoliosis. Coincidence?
Thank you to everyone who responded to my question. I received 28 responses. 23 people said either they or someone in their family had both cd and scoliosis. 1 person said they are not associated, but are hereditary. 1 person said there's no connection. Several people mentioned malnutrition as being a possible factor in scoliosis. A few people suggested that I do a google search on the topic, which I have extensively done. I'm convinced that there's a connection, and I'm factoring that into my daughter's treatment plan.
