Enemas

The foundation of Aajonus's opposition to enemas rests on his framework for E. coli and bowel bacteria. He described E. coli as the dominant bacterium in the large intestine, responsible for the final stage of protein and fat digestion. In his account, E. coli reduces food molecules to the smallest, most finite particles that can pass through the extremely fine veins and arteries of the nervous system. Because the nervous system requires ultra-small particles to receive nourishment, the breakdown work done by E. coli in the bowel is irreplaceable. Without it, the brain and nervous system are chronically undernourished.

He extended this specifically to B vitamins, stating that E. coli is responsible for producing massive amounts of B vitamins that calm and soothe the brain and nervous system. When enemas and colonics flush out this bacterial population, those vitamin-producing and protein-reducing functions cease or diminish severely.

His quantification of the recovery period was specific and repeated across multiple sources. He stated that a single enema or colonic strips the colon of friendly E. coli for 45 to 60 days, and in some accounts up to 90 days. During that entire window, the person is without adequate bacterial function in the bowel, meaning the brain and nervous system go without proper nourishment for weeks to months. He described the consequences of this deprivation plainly: depression, irritability, hypoglycemia, fatigue, anemia, indigestion, and backaches.

He observed that people who use enemas and colonics regularly become more emotionally volatile, more sensitive, and increasingly hypochondriacal with each passing year, not because they are imagining symptoms but because the body is genuinely deteriorating from the chronic deficit in nervous system nourishment. In his words, "every time they do a colonic or an enema, that's 60 days without E. coli." When someone is doing enemas every day or every two days, the E. coli population never has a chance to reestablish itself, and the brain and nervous system are in a state of continuous starvation.

He stated directly that people who do enemas on a daily basis demonstrate noticeably impaired mental function, and that people on regular colonics show even worse cognitive and emotional outcomes. He linked this pattern to the nervous system's loss of its primary nutrient source in the bowel.

Aajonus reserved some of his strongest language for coffee enemas, calling them "horrible" in one seminar and stating without qualification that they are damaging. He framed the harm as twofold. First, they flush out E. coli just as any enema does, imposing the same weeks-long deprivation of bowel bacteria. Second, caffeine absorbed through the rectal tissue goes directly to the nervous system, which receives its nourishment from the bowel. Introducing a nerve irritant like caffeine through this route means irritating the nervous system at its primary nutritional interface. He stated: "You're irritating your nervous system directly. Because your nervous system gets fed from the bowels directly."

In his classification, caffeine is a nerve irritant and stimulant that produces a toxic boost rather than a beneficial one. He noted that chocolate contains theobromine and caffeine, describing both as "two nerve irritants called stimulants." The same characterization applies to coffee whether consumed orally or rectally, but the rectal route bypasses digestive buffering and delivers the irritant more immediately to the tissue that depends on the bowel environment for its nourishment.

He categorized enemas as dangerous in approximately 85% of cases and considered coffee enemas a subset of this danger that additionally carries the caffeine-specific harm to the nervous system.

Because E. coli feeds the brain and nervous system with finitely small protein and fat molecules, its absence after enemas and colonics produces specific mental and emotional effects that Aajonus described in consistent terms across multiple talks. He said people without sufficient E. coli activity are more emotionally unstable, more prone to depression, more irritable, and more sensitive. He described those who do enemas regularly as being "on a rollercoaster up and down and up and down" emotionally, and noted that they become hypochondriacs not because nothing is wrong but because things are genuinely wrong in the nervous system.

He stated clearly that enemas and colonics are the worst thing a person with tendencies toward depression can do. The deprivation of E. coli can take 45, 60, or even 90 days to resolve, meaning the person spends that entire time on the edge of depression or in depression, depending on their baseline. For people with existing psychological disturbances including hypertension, depression, anxiety, or other conditions, he said that flushing the colon with enemas or colonics actively feeds the problem.

He also noted that vegetarians who take colonics are in a particularly compounded situation: they are not feeding the brain and nervous system enough protein through diet, and they are additionally destroying the bowel bacteria responsible for converting whatever protein and fat they do consume into the particles small enough to reach the brain and nervous system. The combination produces a brain and nervous system that is chronically and severely deprived of nourishment.

Despite his strong opposition, Aajonus acknowledged a narrow exception. He said that true constipation, meaning an actual intestinal blockage where the abdomen grows larger with every meal because nothing is passing, was the only situation where he might consider recommending a drastic measure such as an enema. He specified "olive oil and lemon" as one option alongside an enema in this extreme scenario, and only after other approaches had failed. He was careful to distinguish true constipation as a mechanical blockage from what most people call constipation, which in his framework is simply the sigmoid colon holding fecal matter longer than expected in order to absorb everything possible from it.

For the second, more common situation, which he said is not constipation but rather insufficient fat in the system causing hard or infrequent stools, he rejected enemas entirely and offered a completely different approach using a suppository formula.

Rather than enemas, Aajonus developed a suppository approach using raw fats to address constipation and to nourish the bowel bacteria from the rectal end. This is not an enema in his framing because it does not flush out bacteria. It feeds them. He described it with consistent detail across multiple sources.

The base formula involves mixing equal parts raw butter, raw dairy cream, and coconut cream, with a small amount of unheated honey. The specific quantities he gave varied slightly across sources. In one version he specified 3 tablespoons each of butter, coconut cream, and dairy cream with a quarter teaspoon of honey. In another he said 3 to 4 tablespoons depending on body size, with a quarter to a half teaspoon of honey. A newsletter version specified 3 to 4 tablespoons of unsalted raw butter, 2 tablespoons of raw cream, 2 tablespoons of coconut cream (or an additional tablespoon of raw cream if coconut cream is unavailable), and a quarter teaspoon of unheated honey.

The ingredients are placed in a 4-ounce jelly jar with the lid closed tightly, then immersed in a bowl of hot water that is warm enough to bring the mixture to approximately 104 to 105 degrees Fahrenheit but not hot enough to burn the hand when held for 4 seconds. This heating step brings the mixture to body temperature before insertion. He specified that the jar should sit in the hot water for 5 to 10 minutes.

The method of insertion involves using an enema bulb syringe to draw up the mixture and then inject it into the rectum while kneeling on all fours. He described the position as getting on all four legs and barking like a dog, with the face and hands flat on the floor and the buttocks and knees elevated. After injecting the mixture up into the sigmoid colon, the person rolls the stomach in a circular, billiards-like motion for approximately two to three minutes to move the formula through the descending colon. Then the person rolls onto the right side, not the left, lifts the left leg, and rolls the stomach again for another several minutes to move the formula over the transverse colon and potentially into the ascending colon.

The entire procedure is done immediately before sleep so the mixture stays inside through the night. He explicitly stated the person should not evacuate it. The fat coats the feces and prevents drying in the sigmoid colon while the H2O from the creams keeps the sigmoid colon moist. Excess fat moves up the colon to protect and partially nourish E. coli colonies throughout.

He described the effect on the E. coli as nourishing and restorative. Because E. coli in the back end of the colon typically never receives fresh fat from digestion, delivering fat rectally gives the bacteria a nutrient source they otherwise lack. He said the bacteria "rejoice" and become stronger, and that the fat they break down passes into the brain and nervous system over the following two days, producing measurable improvements in mood, positivity, and cognitive function. He noted that people will be happier the next day, more positive, and that brain and nervous system function improves progressively with repeated use.

He said this suppository formula typically needs to be used only every three days for chronic constipation management, or every one to five days as needed. He distinguished this protocol sharply from enemas: "You're going to feed the bacteria. You're not going to enema."

In addition to the butter-cream-coconut cream formula, Aajonus described using clabbered milk as a rectal implant for people with damaged or low bacterial levels in the colon. Clabbered milk is raw milk left out for a couple of days until it has cultured and thickened. He recommended approximately 5 ounces of clabbered milk drawn into an enema bulb syringe and injected rectally, again on all fours, followed by rolling the stomach to distribute the material. He described this as soothing rather than traumatic and said it encourages bacterial growth in damaged or scarred sections of the colon. He referred to this elsewhere as "kefir on a keister" and said it is fun rather than invasive.

He mentioned this approach specifically for someone with low bacteria levels and scarring in the colon from prior antibiotic use, recommending it two to three times a month. He contrasted its gentleness with colonics: "It can be fun. It isn't like some colonic, you know, where they're putting five gallons of water in you. It's just a nice kefir. It actually is very soothing."

Aajonus was specific about the disruption caused by even one enema. He stated in an early training session that after an enema it takes approximately 45 days to reestablish a proper bacterial environment in the bowel. He noted that the disruption also affects the villi and the bowel's ability to synthesize 18 amino acids. The loss of these amino acids during the recovery period means less protein available to the body, which in his framework means more pain, more sensitivity, and more irritability. He said this is not theoretical but something he had tested personally and found to worsen conditions rather than relieve them, contrary to the popular theory that the temporary disruption is worth the cleansing effect.

He also observed that people who use enemas regularly to flush out B vitamins that the bacteria have produced are caught in a cycle. They flush out the bacteria, lose B vitamin production, feel worse, and then flush again hoping for relief, which only compounds the deficit.

In addition to his opposition to coffee enemas, Aajonus stated that plain water enemas are also harmful. He considered water a solvent that dissolves and strips substances from the body, noting that water appears first under solvents in archaeological and chemical references and that distilled water is powerful enough to dissolve rock. Using water in an enema flushes out not just bacteria but also the biochemical environment of the bowel. He said plainly: "You should not do that. Water doesn't... just water? Water is terrible."

While separate from the enema discussion, Aajonus's views on coffee consumed orally are relevant context for understanding his position on coffee enemas. He described coffee as "a catalyst for many diseases" in his book, and throughout his seminars characterized coffee drinkers as people functioning through a toxic mechanism rather than genuine vitality. He drew on his personal history, explaining that he drank up to 11 cups of coffee per day beginning at age 8 to compensate for chronic fatigue caused by vaccine injury and fibromyalgia, and that by age 19 this combined with smoking two packs of cigarettes and drinking benzedrine had produced a stomach ulcer large enough to cause cup-and-a-half projectile vomiting of blood.

He was clear that coffee gives energy by toxic stimulation rather than nutritional support, and that the energy it provides is borrowed against the body's reserves. He proposed vegetable juice, particularly green vegetable juices, as the appropriate coffee substitute in his framework, stating that vegetable juice fills the digestive tract and blood with energy-producing vitamins, enzymes, and minerals and functions as "your stimulant" without the toxic cost of caffeine.

For people with sluggish thyroids who need more stimulation, he offered a warm mixture of mineral water with unheated honey, lemon or lime juice, and optionally raw apple cider vinegar, with an eighth teaspoon of organically grown vanilla extract added as an additional thyroid stimulant. This appears in his published recipe book as a "Coffee Substitute."

He noted that caffeine is no remedy for the anemia that develops when people sleep eight hours without eating and their red blood cells become cannibalistic from protein deficit. Coffee, tea, soda, and cigarettes are what most people reach for in that state, and while they provide stimulation they do not address the underlying red blood cell loss, which requires protein to correct.
