  Safe Candles

  Posted by healthyliving99 on August 21, 2023 at 12:42 am

  Hi Bernadette & Daniel,

  I had a questions in regards to which types of candles are safe to use.

  I know many candles with fragrances in them can be endocrine disrupting. But what about candles which don’t have scents added to them? What about scented candles made out of soy wax or beeswax?

  Thanks!

  I’m going to refer you to Dr. Yvonne’s 3 posts on candles to help answer that question for you. She’s a board certified toxicologist and was our guest expert in January 2023 if you’d like to watch her session here as well.
  1. Part 1 – 5 Reasons I Do Not Burn Candles
  2. Part 2 – Why I Do Not Burn Candles
  3. Part 3 – Safer Candles: Soy, Coconut, Beeswax?

  And I share healthier beeswax options in the Beginner’s Health Roadmap in the Air & Skin pillar here (0.55 minute mark).

  Hope this helps.
