Organically grown beeswax candles offer several unique benefits compared to conventional candles. Here’s a breakdown of the advantages:

1. Non-Toxic and Chemical-Free

• Organic beeswax is free from pesticides, herbicides, and synthetic chemicals, making it safer for indoor air quality. Conventional candles, especially those made from paraffin, can release harmful substances like benzene and toluene when burned, whereas organic beeswax is naturally clean-burning.

2. Neutralizes Indoor Air Pollutants

• Beeswax candles emit negative ions as they burn, which can help neutralize positively charged pollutants in the air, such as dust, mold, and toxins. This can improve air quality and reduce allergens, benefiting respiratory health, especially for those with asthma or allergies.

3. Longer Burn Time

• Beeswax is denser than other waxes, which allows it to burn longer and at a slower rate. Although beeswax candles are often more expensive, their extended burn time can make them more economical in the long run.

Honey has many potential health benefits, including:

Energy boost
Honey is a natural source of energy that can help prevent fatigue and improve athletic performance.
Antioxidants
Honey contains antioxidants like flavonoids and phenolic acids, which may help improve cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease.

Anti-inflammatory
Honey's anti-inflammatory properties can help reduce inflammation in the body. 

Cough remedy
The World Health Organization and American Academy of Pediatrics recommend honey as a natural remedy for coughs. 

Wound healing
Honey can be used topically to treat burns and promote wound healing.

Gut health
Honey may support a healthy gut microbiome because it contains probiotics and prebiotics.

Metabolic syndrome
Honey may help prevent and treat metabolic syndrome, which includes high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and high triglycerides.

Honey is mostly made of sugar, but it also contains vitamins, minerals, amino acids, iron, and zinc. While honey is a natural sweetener, it still counts towards your daily added sugar total. The American Heart Association recommends that women consume no more than 100 calories of added sugar per day, and men consume no more than 150 calories.
