Guest guest Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 Here is your latest health tip on the topic of... Booby-Trapped Candles? Pretty candles are a beautiful part of many holidays, but beware those with bright colors. Not only are they likely to have artificial colorings in them (which you will breathe as they burn) but these colorings may also be protected by BHT (Butylated HydroxyToluene), one of the preservatives eliminated on the Feingold Program. In addition to causing behavioral and/or physical problems in sensitive people, BHT is a known tumor promoter. It is also one of many chemicals found in the environment and in sewage. This and other estrogen-like chemicals are believed to be the cause of the decline in sperm production in recent years. Think before you breathe it. While you are checking out the candles, pay attention to the wick. Studies have shown that candles with lead wicks can release dangerous amounts of lead into the air. Since lead is one of the heavy metals that can cause symptoms of ADHD at low levels, you may want to ask your doctor about testing for lead if you or your child has been exposed to such candles. If you see silver-colored fibers in the candle wick, hold on to the tip of the wick and rub a piece of paper across it. If it makes a mark like a pencil, then it contains lead. Dr. L. Eugene Arnold, in his presentation at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in 1998, suggested that all children with symptoms of ADHD should be screened for lead levels since this is a problem that can be treated if it is identified.
