My husband has scoliosis, and has been eating paleo (with some cheating occasionally) for 4 months, and has noticed a big difference in that his back hurts a great deal less now than ever before. A spine with scoliosis has abnormal curves with a rotational deformity. This means that the spine turns on its axis like a corkscrew. Chiropractic helps DH a great deal, but chiro and paleo together are his best way of managing the condition. Not the same, but I had a twisted sacrum for many years (the sacrum is the large, triangle-shaped bone at the base of the spine from which the tail bone extends.) Chiropractic helped manage the pain, but eating paleo keeps it from twisting in the first place. If I cheat or eat contaminated food, I have problems. The worst foods for me are wheat and dairy.
