Will Soy
Candles be the Leader to Light the
Future?
by Brian F Connors
Ahhhh, the scent and sight of a
burning paraffin wax candle and the appealing ambiance that it
floats throughout a room! One may think that this scenario is
innocence in its purest sense. There is, after all, that cozy
feeling which makes one give thought to everything that's good
in this world. That is until you take the time to get
acquainted with the darker side of the world of paraffin wax
candles.
Did you know that paraffin is a
petroleum by-product which means that paraffin wax may be a
risk to the well-being of your health? How is that, you ask?
Well after petroleum is processed into gasoline, kerosene,
motor oil, diesel and other fuels, the excess waste is then
used in the production of paraffin which contains harmful
toxins and carcinogens. Hmmmm.
The black soot buildup on your
walls, ventilating system, furniture and so forth after burning
paraffin wax candles is similar in composition to diesel soot.
This dirty matter makes a deposit of unwanted and dangerous
pollutants into our homes that endangers the health and welfare
of family, pets, and ourselves when breathed into our
collective lungs. Studies have shown that cancer-causing agents
released by paraffin wax candles are just as toxic as second
hand cigarette smoke and can cause damage to the heart, lungs,
circulatory system and nervous system. This is not a good
thing.
Yuck.
I'd never really thought that burning a candle
could be harmful to my health. I mean their
flames are so small, but yes, burning paraffin
candles does leave sooty marks on walls etc. So
I'm going to switch to soy candles for
sure. ~

Why then have scented candle
sales increased to over 2 billion dollars annually over the
last decade according to the National Candle Association? I'm
not sure but I'd hazard a guess that the mesmerizing glow and
soothing fragrances are part of why seven out of every ten
households burn candles regularly.
Here's a question, though, that
I'd like to pose to anyone that subscribes to the rules of
common sense. It's the one that your parents or teachers of
yesteryear asked when the majority was acting in an
intellectually challenged way. I'll paraphrase it here : If
everyone was jumping off a cliff, would you do the same thing?
The same thing holds for paraffin wax candles, but what
alternatives are there to break this dangerous
habit?
I'm glad that you asked. The
answer is Soy Candles. Why the joy for soy? Soy wax is 100%
vegetable by-product and not a petroleum by-product. Soy is
completely non-toxic and non-carcinogenic and soy candles
produce little or no soot to damage the surrounding room or to
those with allergies or breathing problems. Soy wax is
environmentally safe, biodegradable and is easily cleaned up
with just soap and water.
Now,
aren't wholesale vegetable wax candles sounding
a lot more appealing to you now? And for those
of you who don't like vegetables, just think,
you can buy your vegetables and burn
them! ~

Hold on, I'm not finished
yet. Soy candles burn cleanly and evenly leaving very
little to zero excess wax on the sides of the jar to eliminate
waste. They also burn cooler than most paraffin wax candles
which will lessen the risk of serious burns from melted wax.
These babies also burn 30 to 50 percent longer than paraffin
wax candles which makes them more economical to use. They also
seem to hold their fragrances extremely well compared to the
naughty petroleum by-product kind.
Ok, Ok just one more reason to
think soy. These candles are made from 100% soybean wax made
from soybeans grown right smack here in the USA. So what? Well,
this not only benefits our environment but also supports our
local agricultural industry. It appears that soy candles beat
those bad-boy cousins on every level.
Ya gotta get the facts before
indulging in the pleasure of enjoying the world of candles.
Think outside the box and do the right thing. Your life and
others may very well depend on it!
