The arrangement of the bedroom is a key step, given the fact that it is a space dedicated to rest. Thus, it is important to know what items you should not keep on your bedside table. Usually, on the bedside tables in the bedroom there are objects that create a harmonious overall picture.

For example, a scented candle is used both for its design and its pleasant smell. It’s just that few people know that these accessories that beautify our home are very dangerous.

Doctors advise us not to put scented candles on the bedside table in the bedroom, because during burning they emit substances dangerous to the body. When lit, candles release particles and volatile organic compounds such as formaldehyde and benzene into the air, which at room temperature take the form of vapors.

Health hazards
