Cipro

The clearest and most detailed case Aajonus made against Cipro centered on Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome and the deaths of children that were publicly blamed on E. coli bacteria. He described the situation involving a little girl who became ill, was diagnosed with an E. coli exposure from apple juice, was treated with Cipro, and died of HUS, kidney degeneration. His position was unambiguous: it was the Cipro that killed her, not the E. coli.

He argued this on mechanistic grounds. Cipro has a documented history of causing kidney degeneration. The little girl died of kidney degeneration. No controlled experiment has ever demonstrated that natural E. coli, introduced into a living animal in its natural environment, produces a degenerative condition in the kidney. HUS has only appeared in Petri dish experiments using specially controlled strains of E. coli 0157:H7 combined with hormones and kidney tissue, not in living animals under natural conditions. The rare strain E. coli 0157:H7 almost never occurs in nature; Aajonus noted that when he sought an experimental dose for his own research, he could not find it and had to obtain it from a university.

Because the medical profession and pharmaceutical industry would not admit that the drug caused the child's death, they blamed the bacteria. This blame then served as the legislative and regulatory justification for requiring pasteurization of all commercially sold raw juices, eliminating a major avenue for people to obtain raw food. Aajonus framed this sequence, E. coli scare, Cipro-caused death, death blamed on bacteria, raw juice outlawed, as the pharmaceutical and food industry using a child's death to achieve a regulatory outcome that benefited corporate interests.

He reinforced this case with a direct online exchange he had with the husband of the doctor who treated the child. The husband was also a doctor. Aajonus engaged him in argument for approximately a week, and when he produced documentation showing that Cipro causes kidney disease and challenged the husband to find any experiment proving natural E. coli causes kidney degeneration in a human or any other animal, the doctor went silent and never responded again. Aajonus interpreted this silence as the doctor knowing that continued discussion would create a trail of liability that could lead to lawsuits against the physicians involved.

He made the same argument in reference to another incident, described in the documentary Food, Inc., in which a little boy died of bloody diarrhea. Aajonus stated that what killed the boy was medical stupidity: the treatment of the bloody diarrhea with antibiotics, specifically asking whether Cipro was involved, which damaged the kidneys. The kidney damage then reacted with whatever was in the system and killed the child. The raw food, in both cases, was blamed rather than the chemicals involved in the treatment.

He also cited a California incident in which five children were reported infected with E. coli 0157:H7. Only two of those children suffered kidney damage and HUS. Those two were the ones who received antibiotics. The other children, who did not receive antibiotics, did not develop kidney damage. Aajonus presented this as direct evidence that the antibiotics, not the bacteria, were responsible for HUS.

Aajonus addressed Cipro directly in several consultations involving people with urinary tract symptoms. In one case, a person was given Cipro after a urine test showed bacteria, which the doctor interpreted as infection. Aajonus's response was that E. coli is never a problem anywhere in the body. He described the bacteria found in urine following antibiotic use as an indication of the body's response to antibiotic damage rather than evidence of infection. His instruction was that the person should not ever take antibiotics again.

In another case involving a person whose doctor prescribed Cipro after a procedure that irritated the bladder lining, Aajonus stated that the doctor wanted the patient to damage his kidneys in order to get rid of what was actually a detoxification of damaged tissue in the bladder. His congratulatory tone toward the patient for refusing the drug was deliberate: he framed the refusal as the correct decision and the prescription as an active harm being offered under the guise of care.

He also addressed the case of a Brazilian model who died of complications described as a urinary tract infection. His analysis was that all of her symptoms toward death resulted from overmedication leading to anaphylaxis, and that a septic urinary tract is most often caused by antibiotics, with Cipro named specifically as the primary culprit. People with wealth and access, he observed, tend to seek medicine for all complaints and detoxifications rather than allowing the body to resolve them naturally, and that search for a magic bullet results in overmedication and death.

For people who had already taken Cipro or other antibiotics and experienced damage, Aajonus recommended raw custard as the primary recovery food, stating that it corrects damage caused by antibiotics. His specific protocol for someone recovering from antibiotic damage in a urinary context was raw custard two to three times weekly for ten weeks. He also suggested approximately two teaspoons of wet clay mixed into vegetable juice once daily as a supporting measure.

He noted that even a single antibiotic pill can cause damage that takes several months to resolve, and that the antibiotic compound itself, though likely arrested in its activity relatively quickly, leaves behind cellular damage that requires sustained nutritional support to repair.

Regarding kefir and yogurt consumption alongside recovery, he confirmed that three tablespoons of kefir or yogurt per quart of milk is appropriate.

Aajonus referenced an article citing Harvard-trained bioterrorism expert Dr. Leonard Horowitz, who had officially requested government investigation into the anthrax attacks following September 11, 2001, and the skyrocketing Cipro sales that followed. The article described the FDA's unprecedented endorsement of Cipro over other more cost-effective alternatives as potentially being a Cipro sales scam. Aajonus included this in his newsletters as part of a broader pattern showing how pharmaceutical companies use crisis events, whether genuine or manufactured, to drive drug sales and achieve regulatory favoritism.

Aajonus noted that the FDA has approved at least 118 drugs that proved very destructive to the human body, and that many were recalled. Cipro, he stated, should be one of them, but it has not been recalled. He presented this alongside the FDA's approval of viral soup as a food additive, listeria-targeting bacteriophages, and other interventions he regarded as destructive, framing Cipro's continued market presence as consistent with an agency that does not actually protect public health.

When asked directly by a person facing a wound situation and a doctor's prescription for Cipro at 500mg twice daily, Aajonus did not prescribe a direct pharmaceutical substitute. Instead, he identified the underlying situation as likely not what the doctor believed it to be. In that specific case, he observed that what appeared to be a burn or potential wound infection looked to him like a vaccine detoxification reaction, describing the black areas as resembling mercury, the white tissue as appearing full of aluminum, and a faint greenish cast as suggestive of formaldehyde. He interpreted the visual presentation as a detoxification of old tetanus injection material rather than an active external infection. His overall position was that the bacteria present in such situations are doing necessary cleanup work and should not be killed.

He described lime juice mixed with honey and sparkling mineral water as a natural antibiotic alternative, specifically three to four tablespoons of lime juice stirred with two to three tablespoons of honey, then poured into three to four ounces of naturally sparkling mineral water. He noted that lime juice is strongly antibacterial, unlike lemon juice which promotes fermentation and bacterial growth. However, he immediately qualified this by saying he would never use even this natural approach to stop parasitic or bacterial detoxification processes, only to reduce the pace if overwhelmingly intense.

His broader position was that charcoal cannot stop the kind of degeneration that Cipro causes, and that no magic bullet exists. The body's bacterial processes are not enemies to be eliminated, and any intervention that eliminates bacteria destroys the microbial community on which all human biology depends.
