Are you a homeowner or have you been renting a home for over a decade? If so, this week's episode is a must-listen. Join us as we uncover a hidden danger lurking in many homes—one that could pose a significant risk of cancer.

In this episode of HTS, Dr. Christian Gonzalez shine a spotlight on radon, a silent intruder present in 1 in 15 homes. Despite its prevalence, it's a topic often overlooked in discussions about health and safety.

Radon, a naturally occurring radioactive gas, emerges from the breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water. It's invisible, odorless, and tasteless, making detection without proper equipment nearly impossible.

Shockingly, radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer, following closely behind smoking. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 21,000 lung cancer deaths in the United States each year are linked to radon exposure. But radon knows no borders. Elevated levels have been detected in homes worldwide, highlighting its universal threat to health.

Detecting and Mitigating Radon: Fortunately, there are steps you can take to protect your loved ones. The first crucial step? Get a radon test. Short-term and long-term tests are available, providing essential insights into your home's radon levels.

Taking Action: If test results reveal elevated radon levels, don't panic. Mitigation systems can effectively reduce radon levels by up to 99%. Proper installation and continuous monitoring are key to ensuring your home remains a safe haven.

Join us as we delve into the world of radon, arming you with the knowledge needed to safeguard your home and loved ones from this hidden danger.
