Heavy Metals

Aajonus identified a wide range of sources through which people accumulate heavy metals.

Cooking food is the most universal and constant source. Any food cooked in any metal vessel, including stainless steel, releases metals into the food. He was explicit that stainless steel is not safe. Every metal vessel, regardless of its treated surface, contributes tin and other metals to cooked food. Tin, he said, is the third most toxic metal, behind mercury and thallium, and it is present in every metal used for cooking. He stated that building materials are legally permitted to contain 12% to 20% mercury and spent radioactive waste, that jewelry is permitted to contain 7% mercury, and that silver jewelry is already naturally high in mercury and will cause skin discoloration when it contains thallium, mercury, or both.

Canned foods were identified as a major source of gradual metal poisoning in the general population, producing low-grade, chronic mineral toxicity that complicates and promotes numerous diseases. Metal leaches from can linings when moisture interacts with the metal surface. In thousands of hair mineral analyses Aajonus referenced, every person showed elevated aluminum, and most also showed unnaturally high levels of lead, iron, cadmium, and other toxic metals.

Vaccines and injections were described as direct delivery systems for mercury and aluminum into the nervous system. Because the nervous system uses metallic minerals more than any other tissue, any injected mercury or aluminum travels there preferentially. He noted that four to five tetanus shots produce a level of metal poisoning in the kidneys that he associated specifically with vaccination. He described performing hair analyses after suspected vaccine injections and finding mercury, thallium, lead, and aluminum all at dangerous or very high levels.

Aluminum is present in aluminum cans, aluminum cookware, aluminum foil, aluminum-based deodorants and sprays, aluminum components in window and door screens (inhaled every time someone passes through), and in vaccines in liquid form. Aajonus described aluminum as causing destruction of zeta potential, which is the electrical charge that keeps nutrients suspended and mobile in fluid. When cauterized aluminum enters the system, nutrients that should remain in suspension collapse, losing their ability to reach cells.

Chemtrails were identified by Aajonus as a deliberate environmental source, specifically barium and aluminum. He connected the choice of these two metals to military applications: aluminum is used in gunpowder and ammunition, constituting 15% to 25% of bullets by weight, and dramatically increases explosive force. Barium he described as a neurotoxin and paralytic agent, citing FDA research that he said was stopped before completion because it demonstrated harm; the FDA noted that heart disease patients who were subjected to barium died, but framed this in minimizing language. He stated that the FDA and EPA have done extremely little to monitor barium because the military industrial complex is responsible for releasing it into air, water, land, and food.

Industrial environments expose workers through smelting factories, steel plants, tin factories, lathe operations, and metal-working of all kinds. Lathe operators work in an atmosphere thick with metal-contaminated oil mist. Machinists, metalworkers, and people who live near airports or smelting operations accumulate heavy metals from airborne particles. A woman Aajonus described who grew up under the London airport's flight path had as much heavy metal contamination as lathe operators. He noted that thallium is released in smelting and that, unlike lead, no widely mandated filtration requirement exists for thallium because installing such filtration would cost billions of dollars.

Jewelry made in the last 15 years was named as a source, with silver, platinum, and most alloy-based metals containing mercury and thallium. White gold and pure gold were offered as relatively safer alternatives. Any jewelry that discolors the skin indicates metal contamination including thallium, mercury, or both.

Dried herbs and supplements were discussed as a source of toxic free-radical metals because drying breaks the ionic bonds that made the minerals in those plants safe. When an herb is dried, Aajonus explained, the links between minerals and vitamins, enzymes, and other ions disintegrate, and whatever metallic minerals were present become unbound free radicals. People may feel temporary energy from dried herb supplements, but he attributed that to an adrenaline response to the toxicity, not to genuine nourishment.

Mercury-containing dental amalgams were identified as a continuous source of exposure, with Aajonus citing research showing mercury vapor constantly off-gassing from fillings, including 25-year-old amalgam fillings. He noted that the predominant source of human mercury exposure is amalgam fillings, that mercury from a sheep's fillings transferred immediately to the placenta and to the fetus, increased in the lamb after birth via breast milk, and that the combined effect of mercury, cadmium, and lead together is synergistic, not merely additive, potentially producing 100 to 1000 times the harm of any one metal alone.

Preservatives and food additives in processed and canned foods were described as metallically based, designed to poison bacteria and prevent spoilage by killing microbial life. This same toxicity affects the human body.

Aajonus established a specific hierarchy of metallic toxicity. Mercury is the most toxic, designated by the FDA as the most toxic element on Earth and classified as a neurotoxin. Thallium is second, described as nearly as toxic as mercury, very soft like lead, and used in rodent poison. Tin is third. Lead is fourth. He also described arsenic as highly toxic, placing it between thallium and lead in one instance. Cadmium and aluminum were discussed as severely damaging, with aluminum described as nearly as harmful as mercury because of its destruction of zeta potential.

Barium was discussed as less acutely toxic than mercury or thallium but still a neurotoxin capable of causing paralysis and cardiac death in people with existing heart disease.

The brain and nervous system receive approximately 80% of all stored free radical metals, according to Aajonus. This is because the nervous system runs on metallic mineral conductors for electricity and light transmission, and because the brain is 60% fat at minimum, and fat is the primary storage medium for toxins in the body. When metals are stored in fat, they cause less immediate damage to surrounding cells. When a person lacks adequate fat, metals penetrate cells directly and damage RNA, cellular structure, and functional integrity.

Bone marrow is the secondary major accumulation site, also because of its high fat concentration. When bone marrow becomes contaminated with heavy metals such as aluminum and tin, the red and white blood cells that mature there become weakened and unhealthy. Aajonus estimated that bone marrow metal contamination can reduce blood cell effectiveness by 20% to 30% on average, creating a secondary anemia even when red blood cell counts appear normal. These weakened cells cannot transport oxygen properly.

The spleen stores a reserve of blood, and if that stored blood becomes contaminated with metals leaching from the spleen tissue, those cells return to circulation damaged and unable to carry oxygen effectively, compounding anemia.

The tonsils were identified as organs specifically tasked with protecting the brain from metal poisoning. Children go through repeated congestion and tonsil inflammation because the tonsils are actively working to prevent metals from reaching the brain. Removal of the tonsils eliminates this protection, and Aajonus stated that the brain collects even more metal after tonsillectomy.

Organs can accumulate specific metals that match their cancer type. Cadmium was shown in lab analysis of a kidney cancer patient's tissue. Manganese was found in a pancreatic cancer patient. He described his method of identifying the causative metal by having tumor tissue, vomit, or diarrhea analyzed by laboratory.

Kidneys specifically accumulate metals from vaccination in a pattern he said is distinguishable from other forms of metal poisoning. The kidneys' metal content in this case comes from the direct injection route rather than dietary or environmental absorption.

The teeth and gums are exit routes for metals detoxifying from the brain. As the brain dumps heavy metals, they pass out through the sinuses, tear ducts, earwax, tongue, salivary glands, and most prominently the gums and dental structures.

Aajonus made a sustained argument that the expansion of human brain size over historical time is a consequence of metal toxicity accumulation rather than a sign of increasing intelligence. He stated that the brain began growing larger once humans started smelting metals, that the correlation between brain expansion and tool-making, industrialization, and metal use is causal rather than coincidental. The brain needs to get larger the more toxic metals it must store. He called the human brain a "dump site for metals" and noted that at autopsy, dissolved brain tissue reveals extraordinary concentrations of toxic metals. In one donated brain he analyzed, he found 80,000 times the toxic amount of thallium and mercury.

Free radical metals cause damage by burning tissue, because all heavy metals are acrid by nature and cause dissolution and over-acidification of the cells they contact. The body attempts to buffer this by surrounding each toxic metal molecule with calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and potassium, but when dietary minerals are themselves cauterized from cooking, they are 10% to 30% less alkalinizing than raw minerals, reducing their ability to neutralize the acid damage.

In the nervous system, free radical metals cause misfiring of synapses, blockages in axons and ganglia, interference with current transmission, and disruption of light and electrical communication throughout the brain. Aajonus described the buildup as causing Alzheimer's disease, palsy, neurological disease broadly, and misbehavior in children who are largely running on instinct and immediate chemical reactions rather than conditioned rationality.

When metals accumulate in the nervous system and must be broken down by the body's normal detoxification processes, the byproducts of that breakdown are themselves highly toxic, requiring additional binding substances. He referenced the research of Dr. Laura Van Winkle, described as a neuroscientist who spent 67 years cataloguing the chemistry of the brain and nervous system, who found that the toxins released during nervous system detoxification triggered the same emotional states in which those toxins were originally created and stored.

In meningitis specifically, Aajonus described viral activity in the nervous system as breaking down heavy metals into concentrated forms that become extremely potent poisons, which is why viral meningitis produces more acute danger than bacterial meningitis. Viral solvents concentrate the metal toxicity into a smaller, more intense substance. Bacterial detoxification reduces toxicity by a factor of 10 to 12 compared to viral detoxification, making bacterial processes much safer overall.

Heavy metals in teeth and gum tissue cause dental decay through a mechanism entirely different from what conventional dentistry claims. When the brain dumps mercury, thallium, and lead through the gums, those metals form plaques around the teeth mixed with calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium. Because those alkalinizing minerals are cauterized from a cooked food diet, they buffer the toxic metals poorly, allowing the acidic metal compounds to eat into tooth enamel and dentine. Bacteria then consume the already-damaged dentine tissue, but they are not the cause of the decay. Aajonus stated that the injected vaccines and other sources of heavy metals that reached the brain, which then dump out through the teeth, are the true cause of dental decay. He noted that children are now born with cavities, something essentially unheard of a century ago, and that dental mercury vapor continues to off-gas from amalgam fillings throughout their lifespan.

Heavy metal poisoning causes cancer when concentrations in a given organ or tissue reach levels that produce sustained tissue destruction requiring tumor formation as a containment response. Aajonus identified thallium as the metal that caused the cancer of the jewelry maker he treated, who had absorbed 3,000 times the lethal dose of thallium from years of burning metal jewelry without gloves or a mask, vomiting it out three to six times daily for two and a half months. He stated directly that "those kind of heavy metals, these poisons in your" body are what cause cancer.

The body uses three primary mechanisms to capture, contain, and discard metallic substances. First, ionic attraction through bio-linked units of minerals and complex nutrients that attach to free-radical metallic minerals such as barium and aluminum. Second, lipids, meaning fats that envelop free-radical metallic minerals and prevent them from burning surrounding tissue. Third, white blood cells that ingest metals and carry them out of the system.

From the brain, metals exit predominantly through the gums, salivary glands, tongue, sinuses, tear ducts, and earwax. This process of dumping metals through the teeth and gums is the true origin of most dental decay, plaque buildup, and gum disease.

Through the intestines, heavy metals dump when the heart must push contaminated fluid out rapidly because it cannot store water in the brain or heart during a detoxification event. Vomiting and diarrhea represent the body clearing serious poisons quickly, and Aajonus advised sitting still and allowing this to complete. He cited milk as something used by traditional tribes for insect or creature poisoning, pulling the poisons to the stomach for expulsion.

The kidneys filter metals when their own metal contamination does not impair this function. Vaccination-related kidney metal accumulation, however, can compromise this pathway.

Oysters and shellfish were identified as particularly powerful tools for removing metals from the body, because the metals naturally present in oysters, clams, sea urchin, and scallops attract and chelate toxic metals out of organs and glands, which can trigger vomiting or diarrhea as the organ releases its load.

Cheese was Aajonus's primary recommendation for managing heavy metal detoxification, particularly when metals are dumping into the stomach and causing nausea. He explained that one molecule of mercury requires 200 to 5,000 fat molecules to bind with it and prevent it from doing damage on its way through the digestive tract. Clay requires 10 to 50 molecules per mercury molecule. Cheese, with its concentrated fat and protein matrix, achieves this binding and allows the metal to pass through the intestines in feces without releasing into surrounding tissue. The protocol is to eat small amounts of cheese, about the size of a sugar cube or half a teaspoon, every 15 to 45 minutes, or every 15 to 20 minutes for massive mercury accumulation, meaning three to four pieces per hour. Aajonus described construction workers and other highly contaminated individuals consuming a two-cup jar of these small cheese pieces throughout the day. He observed in iris analysis that the amount of metal leaving the body doubled or tripled in people following this protocol.

For people whose stomachs are lined with mercury or aluminum, he noted that this condition destroys zeta potential in the stomach lining and that cheese is essential to protect the digestive tract during detoxification.

Coconut cream was identified as the most powerful fat for pulling metals out of tissue. Aajonus described placing coconut cream on a metal lid and having it turn gray within one hour, demonstrating its rapid chelating ability. Butter can take 24 hours to a week to begin dissolving metals when applied to metal surfaces. Coconut cream eaten with some fruit, but always accompanied by animal fat such as butter or cream, supports metal elimination. He was specific that animal fats are necessary alongside coconut cream because moving large amounts of toxicity without animal fat protection can overwhelm the system.

Juicing for heavy metal detoxification was discussed with specific cautions. Cilantro juice pulls heavy metals out very rapidly but can cause problems by releasing metals without adequate fat present to bind them. Zucchini juice is somewhat less aggressive and Aajonus said he preferred it. He recommended eating one to two tablespoons of raw cream before drinking any juice that pulls heavy metals, or one tablespoon of butter if cream is unavailable, or eating coconut cream before the juice if that is what is available. Coconut cream being solid when cold will need to be eaten separately rather than mixed into cold juice. The formula for chronic metal toxicity in one specific protocol he described was 40% celery juice, 40% summer squash or zucchini juice, and 20% parsley juice, with a teaspoon of butter or tablespoon of raw cream taken before drinking.

Berries were specified based on the type of metal contamination visible in iris analysis and in the general distribution of toxins. Dark berries, especially blueberries, address tin, mercury, cadmium, and lead, corresponding to gray and black coloration in the iris. Strawberries and raspberries address iron and iodine contamination, corresponding to orange and rust coloration in the eyes. The berry meals should be made with coconut cream and dairy cream, with two to three tablespoons of lime juice added. Lime juice harnesses the poisons during the detoxification process. Aajonus specified that berries for this purpose should be organic but can be fresh or frozen, since the goal is mineral content rather than sugar.

Shellfish, specifically oysters, clams, sea urchin, and scallops, were recommended for people with heavy industrial metal exposure. A Polynesian-style preparation with tomato, lime juice, and coconut cream was described as appropriate. For one highly metal-toxic woman who grew up under London's airports, he recommended one cup of red meat with shellfish, alongside a quart and a half of milk per day and approximately a quarter stick of butter per day. He stated that shellfish may be the only way to get certain forms of metal toxicity out of the system for lathe operators and industrial workers.

Chelation therapy, the conventional medical approach, was strongly rejected. Aajonus stated that every person he observed who had used injected or oral chelation therapies showed poisoned skin, connective tissue, and lymphatic systems, with toxic metal rings visible around the eyes in iris analysis. He found only one exception, someone who used oral chelation who did not have this outcome. His objection to chelation is that the chelating agents are themselves metallic and pull metals from deep storage but then deposit them in the lymphatic system, connective tissue, and skin rather than actually removing them from the body. He described this as trading deep-storage metal toxicity for superficial tissue metal poisoning.

Terramine clay was acknowledged as a legitimate binder for heavy metals including mercury and arsenic, though Aajonus noted it is naturally high in aluminum. He compared clay's binding capacity to cheese, noting clay requires 10 to 50 molecules per mercury molecule compared to cheese's 200 to 5,000 fat molecules.

Raw meat, particularly when consumed raw rather than cooked, was described as passing 98% of its existing toxic mineral content through the body bound within relatively unaltered fat molecules, according to tests Aajonus said he conducted. Cooked and chemically contaminated foods, by contrast, cause toxic minerals to store in bones and accumulate systemically.

Aajonus developed a practical method for identifying which metals are causing a particular cancer or disease. He recommended sending tumor tissue, vomit, or diarrhea to a laboratory for heavy metal analysis, then cross-referencing the results with published lists of which cancers specific metals are known to cause. He used this with a kidney cancer patient whose tissue came back high in cadmium, which is a known cause of kidney cancer. Pancreatic cancer in another patient's tissue came back high in manganese. He identified thallium as the cause of a breast and lung cancer patient's condition through vomit analysis.

He recommended saving the third, fourth, or fifth vomit of a detoxification episode rather than the first, as later vomit provides the clearest picture of what is being eliminated. He stated that knowing which metals are in the body allows him to determine which foods and protocols will chelate and eliminate them specifically.

In meningitis, the concentration of heavy metals in the neurological fluid creates a specific danger when viruses enter the nervous system to break down those metals. Viral solvents concentrate the metal poisoning into a small, intensely toxic substance, which is why viral meningitis is life-threatening in a way that bacterial meningitis is not. Bacterial detoxification reduces toxicity by a factor of 10 to 12, making it far less dangerous even when it addresses the same underlying metal accumulation.

Aajonus described the entire mechanism of tooth decay as a consequence of heavy metal detoxification from the brain. As metals exit the brain through the gums and teeth, the body attempts to buffer them by creating mineral plaque composed of calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium. Because most people eat cooked food, those alkalinizing minerals are cauterized and 10% to 30% less potent than raw minerals. The toxic metal compounds, which become more abrasive and more acidic when cauterized, overwhelm the weakened mineral plaque and eat through tooth enamel into dentine. Bacteria then consume the damaged dentine, but Aajonus insisted they are not the initiating cause. He said the medical profession points to the bacteria eating the dead cells while ignoring that the injections of heavy metals, the vaccines, the fillings, and the cooked food diet created the damage in the first place. Children who receive vaccines are born with or develop early cavities because their brains are already being loaded with mercury and aluminum from birth.

Because the brain and nervous system depend on properly bound, ionically intact metallic minerals to conduct electricity and light, and because free radical metals disrupt this function, Aajonus connected heavy metal accumulation to virtually all neurological and behavioral dysfunction. Alzheimer's disease, palsy, autism-spectrum misbehavior in children, neurological diseases of all kinds, difficulty following thoughts, inability to concentrate, synaptic misfiring, and blocked neural transmission were all attributed to free radical metallic mineral buildup in the brain. He stated that when metals are free radical in the nervous system, they damage the function by burning and causing irritation to cells rather than conducting cleanly.

Children, he argued, are particularly vulnerable because they still operate largely on instinct and immediate chemical reactions. Loading a child's brain with free radical metals from vaccines, canned food, cooked food, and environmental pollution produces behavioral dysregulation and neurological damage. The epidemic of behavioral problems in children was directly attributed to this accumulation.
