Beeswax Candle releases negative ions when it burns. Pollen, dust, dirt, pollutants, and any other junk in the air all carry a positive charge, and that is how they can be suspended in the air. The negative ions released from burning beeswax negate the positive charge of air contaminants, and the neutralized ions are sucked back into the burning beeswax candle or fall to the ground. Many air purifiers and water filters harness this effective negative ion technology.
Because
Beeswax Candles clean the air and reduce indoor pollutants, they can effectively reduce asthma, allergies, and hay fever. One of the most rewarding parts of my candle pouring job was listening to customers tell me miraculous stories of how the beeswax candles changed their quality of life. The most common thing I heard was, [these are the only candles I can burn," or [these are the only candles my husband will let me burn," since the beeswax didn`t release irritating toxins and fragrances. Here are two of the most memorable stories.
Beeswax Candles and Asthma
As I was ringing up one woman`s candle purchase in the candle shop, I struggled to fit all of her candles into the three large canvas bags she provided. [Wow–you must be stocking up." I observed. [I am never running out of these candles again!" she exclaimed, and told me how the candles changed her young son`s life. [He has always had terrible asthma that acts up at night. The other day, I burned one of these candles in his room two hours before he went to bed. He had no asthma symptoms at all! Now we do this routine every night."
