Al-Marsad newspaper: A doctor warned of the danger of candles to health.

He said during a video clip: “In the past, candles were made from natural beeswax, and the combustion exhaust that comes out of it is not harmful.”

He added: “Currently, most candles are made from paraffin, which is a petroleum substance, and when burned, it releases car exhaust and gasoline, which are very dangerous substances that are carcinogenic and cause breathing problems.”

He continued: “What is more dangerous than that is the use of scented candles, which contain a dangerous substance that affects the balance of hormones in the body, especially estrogen.”
