Candles
Who doesn’t love sitting down for a candle-lit romantic meal for two or slipping into a hot relaxing bath after a hard day’s work with some scented candles? Well, we’re sorry to break it to you but some candles can be far from relaxing for your body.
Candles can be significant sources of ultra-fine and fine particles which are associated with inflammation in the lungs, even more so if you suffer from asthma. If you prefer the scented version, many of them emit harmful formaldehyde. It’s not all doom and gloom for candle lovers as beeswax or soy candles are an excellent alternative.
