Fluoride

Fluoride, in Aajonus's framework, is primarily a byproduct of manufacturing, especially the manufacturing of metals for military purposes. When tanks, planes, guns, and other military hardware are produced, fluoride is a main byproduct of processing the steel, aluminum, and other metals involved. He stated that fluoride is produced in such enormous quantities from military metal production alone that the waste stream is measured in trillions and trillions of pounds per year, and that there was no economically viable way for the military industrial complex to store, neutralize, or safely decontaminate this volume of material.

He also described fluoride as a byproduct of aluminum manufacturing more broadly, not only the military sector. In his analysis of the Los Angeles municipal water supply, he noted that when he had the water tested in 2003, it contained 157 chemical toxins before fluoride was added. When fluoride was introduced into that same water supply, the total number of chemical toxins rose from 157 to 192. He used this as evidence that fluoride itself is a complex compound carrying with it many additional toxic chemical constituents, not a single pure substance being added in controlled doses.

He described fluoride as the smallest negative particle on Earth. Because fluoride particles are so small and carry such an intensely negative charge, they are capable of interfering with the hydrogen bonds that hold enzyme coils in their functional shape. He cited X-ray studies demonstrating that hydrogen bonds are broken by fluoride, and he stated that fluoride destroys enzyme molecules at very low concentrations, around one to three parts per million. He noted that the enzymes themselves are often three thousand or more times smaller than fluoride particles, which is what makes the disruption so damaging. He said fluoride has been linked to at least 114 ailments and that its mechanism of enzyme destruction has been demonstrated at the molecular level by researchers including Dr. Judd, who showed that the enzyme adenosine diphosphatase, which normally delivers phosphate to calcium on tooth surfaces, is specifically disrupted by fluoride.

Aajonus explained in multiple seminars that fluoride entered municipal water supplies not through any legitimate public health decision but through the military industrial complex's need to dispose of its waste. The process, as he described it, involved the military and national security apparatus browbeating and forcing counties and municipalities into purchasing fluoride and adding it to their water systems. Crucially, he emphasized that municipalities were not given fluoride for free as a public health service. They were sold it. The military industrial complex collected revenue from municipalities to absorb what would otherwise have been a catastrophically expensive neutralization and storage problem.

He compared this arrangement explicitly to the vitamin E industry. He noted that 99 percent of all commercial vitamin E comes from Kodak and Fuji film companies, which use the same chemical precursors in photographic developing fluids. Just as those companies found a way to sell their industrial waste as a health supplement, the military found a way to sell fluoride as a dental health additive. He stated: "It's like Kodak and Fuji, let's get rid of our toxic waste and sell those vitamin E."

He also connected fluoride to the mercury used in vaccines, framing both as industrial waste streams that the government and corporations have found ways to inject into the population under the cover of health promotion, rather than pay the cost of proper disposal.

At the time of his seminars, Aajonus stated that fluoride was present in up to 80 percent of municipal water supplies in the United States, compared to approximately 68 percent just twenty years earlier, and that the push was intensifying. He described watching San Diego fight fluoridation for 25 years, with approximately 80 percent of the population voting against it, only to have the board of supervisors override that democratic opposition and mandate fluoridation anyway. He also noted that even in cases where water authorities claimed to have removed or reduced fluoride, testing showed it was still present, just at somewhat reduced concentrations, and he stated he did not believe official assurances about fluoride removal.

Aajonus returned repeatedly, across many different seminars and in his newsletters, to a specific experiment conducted in the 1950s, which he variously located in Massachusetts, the northeast coast, Maine, or Boston depending on the session. The core structure of the experiment he described was always the same: two neighboring towns sharing essentially the same water source, with fluoride added to one town's municipal water and not the other. The towns were then compared for cavity rates.

The official conclusion, which Aajonus stated was what governments and corporations repeated ever afterward, was that the town with fluoride in the water had fewer cavities. From this single finding, fluoride was declared beneficial for dental health.

Aajonus's objection was that this conclusion deliberately omitted the single most important piece of data from the study: the town that received fluoride also experienced massive tooth loss. Depending on which seminar transcript is referenced, he described the tooth loss rate in the fluoride group as somewhere between 10 percent and 22 percent of all teeth over the study period. The people in the fluoride town were not having fewer cavities because fluoride was protecting their teeth. They were having fewer cavities because they had fewer teeth. Entire teeth were falling out, abscessing, and being extracted before they could develop cavities.

He stated that when you calculate the cavity rate as a proportion of remaining teeth, rather than as a raw total, the town that did not receive fluoride actually had fewer cavities relative to the number of teeth they retained. He also noted that the fluoride group experienced something like 20 percent more dental extractions and tooth loss than the non-fluoride group.

He was equally critical of toothpaste containing fluoride, noting that he personally did not brush his teeth until around age eight and that within a year of beginning to use Crest toothpaste, which contains fluoride, he developed his first cavities. He used this as a direct personal example of fluoride causing rather than preventing dental decay.

Dr. Judd's research, which Aajonus cited in his newsletters, stated that if the forecast of 80 percent dental improvements from fluoride were accurate, the average 13-year-old American would have only one cavity. The actual figures from dental literature showed something entirely different: Americans aged 7 averaged 13 cavities, 25 percent of Americans over 43 had no natural teeth remaining and the rest averaged 32 cavities, and 42 percent of Americans over 65 had no natural teeth at all.

In Aajonus's framework, tooth decay is not caused by bacteria eating enamel but by toxic heavy metals, primarily from the brain and nervous system, that discharge downward through the gums, tongue, and salivary secretions. The brain and nervous system accumulate enormous quantities of metallic minerals to facilitate electrical and light transmission for neurological function, and in a polluted environment combined with a cooked food diet, these accumulations include large quantities of destructive free-radical heavy metals. The body attempts to discharge these through the gums and salivary system, and fluoride is explicitly named as one of those toxins that the body tries to expel through the teeth and gums.

Fluoride, in this context, is not an external protective agent but one of the very toxins the body is already trying to eliminate through the oral tissues. Adding more fluoride through water or toothpaste therefore increases the toxic burden on the teeth rather than protecting them.

Fluoride interferes with the enzyme adenosine diphosphatase specifically. This enzyme normally delivers phosphate to calcium on tooth surfaces, which is the mechanism by which teeth are mineralized and maintained. When fluoride disrupts this enzyme, the delivery of phosphate to calcium is interrupted, which undermines the structural integrity of the tooth surface. He stated this happens both from fluoride in drinking water and from fluoride in toothpastes, and that fluoride in toothpaste also damages the protein molecules that normally cause gums to adhere to teeth, which is one mechanism by which gum recession and gum pockets develop.

In children specifically, he stated that fluoride often causes deformed palates and salivary glands, crooked teeth, discolored teeth, and tooth loss.

Aajonus described fluoride as a neurotoxin. He explained that it prevents the body from replacing bone cells, including in the jaw, contributing to the broader pattern of bone loss and dental deterioration he associated with heavy metal toxicity. He said that fluoride, as a byproduct of metal manufacturing, is itself a metallic toxin that gets into the bones and discharges from there into surrounding tissues including the skin.

He also described fluoride's neurological effects in terms of mental docility and suppression of the instinct to resist or fight back. This was not merely a political observation for him but a biochemical one. He noted that in laboratory animal experiments, animals given a 3 percent fluoride solution in their water became so passive within approximately two months that they would not defend themselves when attacked by unfluoridated peer animals. An unfluoridated rat or mouse placed with a fluoridated one would attack and kill the fluoridated animal, which would not defend itself. Two unfluoridated animals placed together would fight but not fight to the death. This behavioral change in animals was, in his framework, a direct biochemical consequence of fluoride's disruption of neurological function rather than a simple sedative effect.

He connected this to the broader category of endocrine disruptors, noting that all endocrine-disrupting chemicals in the thousands of products they appear in reduce the hormones that give people the gumption to stand up for their rights. He described fluoride as among the most potent of these because of its combination of neurological disruption and its presence in the water supply, making it an involuntary and continuous exposure.

Aajonus described the use of fluoride in water supplies as a deliberate population management strategy. He cited Henry Kissinger's 1970s report, which he referred to as something like the "201 report," which he said discussed how to reduce population through vaccines, injected medications, and the poisoning of water systems with fluoride and chlorine. He stated that Hitler used fluoride in the concentration camps specifically because animal experiments had already demonstrated its docility-producing effects, and that Nazi Germany found that by putting fluoride in the water at a certain concentration level, they could reduce the number of guards required by as much as 50 percent, because the prisoners became so passive that they would accept anything done to them.

He stated that New York City was the first major American city to add fluoride to its water supply, and that following fluoridation, domestic violence fell by nearly 25 percent and violent crime fell by approximately 15 percent. Rather than presenting this as a public health benefit, he presented it as evidence that fluoride was achieving exactly the population-control effect the military and national security apparatus intended. The government, in his view, was not interested in what fluoride did to people's health. The goal was to make the population docile and reduce the risk of popular rebellion against corrupt political institutions.

He stated directly that the NSA and military were behind the push to fluoridate every major city's water supply, and that the motivation was not dental health but ensuring that the population would remain passive and controllable. He said: "They want total control, and they want to do what they want, and you are just a slave as far as they're concerned."

One of the more specific technical points Aajonus made about fluoride concerned home distillation. He addressed this directly in response to questions from people who believed they were removing fluoride from their water by distilling it. His answer was unambiguous: distillation does not remove fluoride.

His explanation was that when water is distilled, fluoride does not stay behind as a solid residue. Instead, it converts into a gaseous form along with the water vapor. In that gaseous state it travels with the water through the distillation process, and when the vapor re-condenses into liquid water, the fluoride re-crystallizes back into the water. The fluoride never leaves the water. It changes its physical state, from dissolved ion to gas to crystallized form, but it accompanies the water throughout and returns to it.

He used the example of mercury behaving similarly, noting that mercury also goes into a gas form and then back into a particulate form that returns to the water. He cited his own experience in West Palm Beach, where he had been distilling water thinking he was removing fluoride, only to realize later that he was not.

Because fluoride and other chemicals in municipal water are absorbed through the skin during bathing, Aajonus developed specific bath formulas designed to neutralize fluoride and other toxins before they can enter the body through the skin.

He described a bath formula that included raw unpasteurized apple cider vinegar and raw coconut cream, with the coconut cream being optional but recommended to prevent the skin from drying out. He also described adding raw milk to the bath. The milk was specifically said to neutralize fluoride primarily through the action of calcium, phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium in the milk, which bind with fluoride and neutralize it in the bath water before it can be absorbed through the skin.

He distinguished between what milk handles and what clay handles in the bath. Milk and its minerals address fluoride and similar lighter toxins, while heavier metals such as copper, iron, and uranium are more effectively bound and removed by clay, specifically the clay he referred to by the brand name Terramin or the finer mesh version he called terrasilk. He also recommended a tablespoon of clay in the bathtub along with the milk and other ingredients.

He noted that this bath formula ratio worked well for the 192-chemical water in Los Angeles and should work anywhere unless the local concentration of fluoride is unusually high, in which case the formula might need adjustment.

For those who wanted to reduce fluoride and other chemical exposure from municipal tap water rather than simply neutralizing it in a bath, Aajonus described a multi-stage filtration system he considered the only genuinely effective approach. He specified that this should be a four-to-five tier system.

The first filter should be a paper filter to capture oil-soluble compounds that will adhere to paper. The second filter should be a charcoal filter made from coconut-derived charcoal, which he recommended specifically for addressing mercury and thallium. He warned against other types of charcoal, which he said contain those same metals. The final two stages should both be sand filters. He described sand as an "incredible cleanser" and said that having two sand filters at the end of the system was essential. He did not endorse standard commercial filters, reverse osmosis units, or single-stage systems as adequate for the level of chemical contamination present in municipal water.

He also said he would not take a shower using municipal water with the level of fluoride and chlorine present in many city water supplies, stating that if he did he would be in a nervous, shaking condition within ten minutes. His recommendation was to take hot baths where the neutralizing ingredients could be added to the water, rather than showers where no neutralization was possible.

Aajonus's position on toothpaste containing fluoride was that it does not help dental health in any way. He recommended against using commercial toothpaste entirely. For removing plaque from teeth, he recommended using raw apple cider vinegar, and stated that this should be done for only ten days at a time before cycling off, presumably because vinegar itself has an effect on tooth enamel if used continuously. He emphasized that plaque needs to be removed because it is the medium through which heavy metals discharged from the brain do their damage to the dentine, not because the plaque itself is the primary cause of decay.

The act of removing plaque was endorsed, but the agent used to remove it was explicitly not fluoride toothpaste. He noted that toothpaste with fluoride was contraindicated because fluoride interferes with the enzyme systems that maintain tooth mineralization and damages the protein bonds that keep gums adhered to teeth, which means fluoride toothpaste both fails to protect against decay and actively contributes to gum disease and tooth loss.
