Slipped disc is pathology in disc in between two vertebral bodies. Whenever there is increased size it compresses nerve root. The cause is totally mechanical irrelevant to diet. For loosing weight we should take fiber rich diet so that fat binds to fiber will not absorb and pass out through stool.
Next Steps
For better understanding of your situation you can reach out clinic or do online consultation.
