| Soy really is one of nature’s miracles. A candle made from soy is, quite simply, a beautiful candle. Once you have experienced the amazing benefits of a soy candle, you will never want to go back to a paraffin candle. The differences between soy and paraffin candles are like night and day. Just compare them and see which you would chose for your health and for natural beauty. Paraffin is a petroleum by-product of oil refining and soot from burning paraffin can contain carcinogens, neurotoxins and reproductive toxins. Analysis testing by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has found the following compounds in significant quantity – acetone, benzine trichloroflouro- methane, carbon disulfide, butanone, trichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride, particulate matter, tetrachloroethane, tolulene, chloro-benzene, ethylbenzene, styrene, xylene, phenol, cresol, cyclopentene and lead. According to the EPA, the above substances pose a health hazard with continued exposure over a period of time. |
