MIND YOUR BEESWAX
WHY WOULD YOU BURN BEESWAX CANDLES.WHEN PARAFFIN CANDLES ARE MUCH CHEAPER?
.
Yes, it is true that you can purchase paraffin candles for a fraction of the price of pure Beeswax candles,
but at what cost?
Paraffin is a bi-proouct of the petroleum industry. It is what is left after all the gas and oil is removed from the crude oil. It needs to be bleached and scented using a chemical process, and when burned, will release these toxins and impurities into the air. People with asthma, allergies or other respiratory problems should be especially aware of this.
Beeswax is a natural wax that is secreted by the glands of Honeybees as they go about the business of producing and storing their honey in the hive. It has a,naturaJ aroma similar to the floral source that the bees are gathering the nectar from. When burned it produces negative ions that actually remove toxins and impurities from the air.
Lets compare the Characteristics

PARAFFIN

I GUESS A BETTER QUESTION WOULD BE. WHY WOULD ANYONE WANT TO BURN ANYTHING OTHER THAN PURE BEESWAX CANDLES IN THEIR HOMES?
