Impacting Indoor Air Quality From Mold and Mycotoxins: Scott introduces us to Seth Jones, CEO of Hygia Living Corp, to discuss the growing issue of toxicity in homes and businesses. Seth highlights that 66 million homes and 170 million people in the U.S. are affected by ongoing water damage and mold, leading to mycotoxin production. He shares his personal experience with building-related illness in Los Angeles and introduces Hygia products: a biodegradable cleaner for mycotoxins, a chlorine dioxide gas for decontamination, and an endurance coating to prevent mold growth on surfaces. Seth emphasizes the importance of personal accountability in creating healthier living environments. Your Co-Host Today: Seth Jones is the CEO of Hygia Living Corp., where he and his team developed Superstratum, the first patent-pending process to remove mycotoxins from homes. His work has focused on understanding the hidden causes of Building-Related Illness (BRI) and developing products and solutions to address these issues. Before founding Hygia Living, Seth spent 15 years as an international songwriter, producer, and DJ. However, a personal experience with BRI changed everything, leading to the creation of Superstratum. Now, Seth and Hygia Living are on a mission to heal the estimated 66 million homes in the U.S. that create toxic conditions leading to BRI. With 170 million people currently living in these homes, the Hygia Living mission to heal our homes has never been more important. Seth believes that our health can only rise to the level of our environment and that a pure, toxin-free environment is essential for the healing of the body, mind, and soul.
