Soot particles travel deep into the lungs. Breathing soot is not recommended at all!
EPA ( Environmental Protection Agency ) testing has found over 20 dangerous compounds in SIGNIFICANT guantities. Burning
paraffin candles can produce a variety of harmful toxins, including benzene & toluene, known carcinogens, as well as acetone
and lead.
The soot from these materials contain not only carcinogens, but neurotoxins and reproductive toxins.
The American Lung Association says, " burning paraffin candles can emit small amounts of toxins into the air."

and contaminate ventilation ductwork in your home, as well as adding potential carcinogens into the air you breathe.
