Speaking of Dr. Higa, whom I met once -- a very nice man -- I strongly
recommend the English translations of his brilliant books, Earth
Saving Revolution, Volumes One and Two. These have been among the
most influential books in my life, and I'm not a scientist. Higa
writes in a manner accessible to the layperson, without condescension
or "dumbing down" the subject matter. Like many very bright men and
women, he uses plain language to convey important ideas. Higa's
involved in medical research with EM as well. In the USA his products
and books are available from a company called Sustainable Community
Development, whose owner studied with Higa in Okinawa.

Thank you, Tom! We already have chlorine added to our local water
and I see how it is activated much more when there is steam involved,
so I was concerned. Several emphysema people have said how it is
difficult to breathe in the shower, perhaps due to the the activity of
the chlorine when in the company of steam and our lungs.
I recall a product called EM (Essential Microorganisms?) created by a
Japanese horticulturalist, Dr. Teruo Higa, that balanced the soil by
introducing good organisms into it. So I wonder if the problem is
that we have chlorine added to our water that throws an imbalance in
the environment of the shower flora that causes the mold similar to
our use of antibiotics and our yeast problem? Just speculating... EM
is used by some to rid homes of mold and in prevention of mold. I used
EM for my garden years ago, but not for mold. I found at least one
article (many more if you do a search), but I don't know how valid it
is, but worth looking into for non toxic means of mold control:

Hello Sharlene,
Care has to be taken in sizing the packet to be used. However, in
general when the shower is running the fan is on and no odor is
detectable. I suppose it is possible to linger in the bathroom for an
extended period of time after a shower and after the fan has shut off
and having the door shut it may be possible to be exposed to a
stronger concentration of chlorine dioxide. Usually, this is not an
issue.
