The Benefits of a Candle

Reducing toxins is a powerful action you can take every day for your health and the health of our Earth. Because we are exposed to so many toxins, reducing toxic products is a good idea.

Instead of using the petroleum based WD40 you can use a candle!

How?

For a sliding glass door that no longer rolls easily, run a candle along the tracks. This works so well and you aren’t exposed to toxins.

For squeaky doors, take off the pins and rub the candle along the pin where it contacts the hinge. Problem solved!

Choose beeswax candles with natural wicks.

Most candles are made from petroleum-based paraffin polluting your home and releasing benzene, formaldehyde and soot. Fragrances and bright colors in candles add more petroleum-based toxins causing you even more risk.  

It is best to avoid every petroleum product possible since petroleum exposure is linked to cancer, respiratory illness and organ harm.
