    The holiday season is one of my favorite times of the year. I love the food, friends, family, quality time, and wonderful holiday scents. However, the traditional holiday candles, glade plugins, and other synthetic fragrances always give me a headache and brain fog. Not to mention the phthalates and formaldehyde that can be released from cheap candles and air fresheners.

    In today's episode of the Elemental Evan Podcast, host Evan addresses the hidden dangers of synthetic holiday fragrances and their detrimental effects on health, such as causing headaches and brain fog. He sheds light on harmful chemicals found in products like candles, air fresheners, and Glade plugins, including VOCs, formaldehyde, and phthalates.

    You can expect to hear practical advice on switching to healthier alternatives such as beeswax candles, essential oil diffusers, and natural pot simmering. He also discusses methods to detoxify the body and support overall well-being, including clean dieting, detox aids like activated charcoal, and physical activities for lymphatic drainage. Listeners will gain valuable tips on creating a safer and pleasant home environment while maintaining enjoyable holiday scents.
