Why Are Toxins in Candles Bad for You?
With the cold and dark weather creeping in, lighting the house with candles is nice. The scents and flickering lights are somewhat relaxing. Recently, however, there has been talk about candle fumes being unsafe. Most candles are made from oil which is bleached and mixed with dangerous toxins that are harmful to inhale. These candles are called Paraffin candles, and they are not the healthiest candles to burn at home; burning them will put toxins and carcinogens (cancer-causing substances) into the air you breathe. The EPA has recently confirmed that Paraffin candles are bad for you because they contain many dangerous chemicals, including carcinogens, neurotoxins, and reproductive toxins.
Which Candles Are Safe for Your Health?
A study presented at the American Chemical Society's meeting in Washington D.C by R. Massoudi and Amid Hamidi found that the more expensive candles made from beeswax or soy are one of the safest candles because they do not release harmful chemicals. Lighting one Paraffin candle occasionally will not harm you - but the continuous use of paraffin candles for many years may increase the carcinogens you consume.
Candles That Are Healthy to Burn
It's worth it to spend more money on Soy or Beeswax candles as they are clean candles to burn. These types of candles are safer for the environment and those living in your home. Soy candles have many benefits - the first being that they are not harmful to your health! Soy candles can last up to 50% longer than Paraffin candles, making them one of the healthiest candles to burn at home; they are not made of foreign oil, they do not contain animal fats, and they are derived from a renewable resource. If you want to live healthily, try switching from Paraffin to Soy!
