Candles And Oil Burners
candles and oil burners
Electric perfume diffusers, perfumed candles, and oil burners,are there UNHEALTHY effects?
Cos they pump god knows what into the air we breathe ?
Yes there are
I live in the UK and my daughter has some health problems
and the doctor asked quite early on whether we used air 'freshners' in the home (we don't)
In particular, the European study detected cancer-causing chemicals such as benzene and formaldehyde in some air fresheners. Benzene is known to cause leukemia in humans, and formaldehyde has been linked to cancers of the upper airways.http://www.articlesbase.com/diy-articles/beware-many-air-fresheners-have-harmful-ingredients-588708.html
Pure essential oils used in moderation are a different matter - although potentially harmful if ingested or applied to the skin, - as a diffuse vapour they are *probably* totally safe
