Burning paraffin candles in your home creates the same air quality
as sitting behind a diesel truck inhaling exhaust fumes!

Most candles available today are made from paraffin wax.
A few chemicals normally found in paraffin candles
include formaldehyde, toluene, benzene, ethanol, and acetone
.
Add to this mix, petroleum-based fragrances
and you dramatically increase the toxic chemicals in your home.

High levels of indoor pollutants are a major problem
considering that AIRBORNE SOOT CAN PENETRATE
THE DEEPEST AREAS OF THE LUNGS AND LOWER RESPIRATORY TRACT.
Emissions in the home are estimated to stick around
for UP TO 10 HOURS after extinguishing.

What IS paraffin? A fancy name for the BYPRODUCT OF CRUDE OIL.
It has become the leading wax for use in cosmetics, food
and candle manufacturing because it's cheap and readily available.
The OIL INDUSTRY MAKES A HEALTHY PROFIT FROM ITS USE,

Speaking of clean, some candle may not notice this soot covering their walls,
blinds/curtains. This soot is from the airborne petroleum.
