Join Ray Solano and mold expert John Banta on Healthy Choices, Dr. Talks to uncover how water, not mold, drives contamination—and how simple cleaning and prevention steps can restore a healthier home. ---- In this week’s episode of Healthy Choices, Dr. Talks, I had the pleasure of talking with John Banta, author of Mold Controlled, about the right way to identify, clean, and prevent mold in our homes. John breaks down what mold really is—and why it’s not always the villain we think it is. The real culprit is water damage. When moisture meets organic materials like drywall or wood, mold naturally starts to grow. The goal isn’t to live in a sterile space—it’s to keep our environments dry and manageable. He also shares why you should never rely on “killing” mold with harsh chemicals or ozone. Instead, physical removal using simple detergent and microfiber cloths is the safest and most effective approach. We also talk about how to know when an item can be cleaned or should be discarded, and how to spot the warning signs of hidden leaks or condensation before they cause problems. This episode is all about empowering you with practical, science-based tools to make your home—and your body—healthier, step by step. ---- John Banta is a certified mold consultant, environmental health specialist, and author of Mold Controlled: A Guide to Finding, Fixing, and Preventing Mold Problems in Homes. His mission is to help families and professionals understand the science of mold—so they can address it calmly, safely, and effectively. ---- www.linkedin.com/in/ray-solano-76960463 www.instagram.com/pdlabs/ open.spotify.com/show/78tLVSbC28VnDbpw2SqiEg podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/heal…es/id1203354304 www.iheart.com/podcast/256-healt…choices-31040306/ ---- PODCAST Thank you for listening.
