Don’t Burn Another Candle Until You Watch This | Dr. Janine

Don’t Burn Another Candle Until You Watch This | Dr. Janine In this video, Dr. Janine advises you not to burn another candle until you watch this. She explains that candles are often made from paraffin, a byproduct of the petroleum industry that lets off carcinogenic fumes and VOCs (volatile organic compounds). Breathing in these VOCs can cause irritation to the eyes, nose, and throat, breathing problems, nausea, and can damage the central nervous system and other organs. Dr. Janine talks about how conventional candles also contain synthetic fragrances that contain phthalates that are inhaled or absorbed through the skin. When these phthalates enter the bloodstream they can exacerbate allergic symptoms, and asthma, and alter hormone levels. She looks at research that found that adverse symptoms were prevalent in 24.8% of students who used scented candles. There are other options like soy-based candles but these are made with hydrogenated soybean oil and are not much better. Dr. Janine recommends looking for beeswax candles scented with natural essential oils and using them in well-ventilated areas. She also suggests doing regular full-body detox.
