Does anyone have any sources on the "negative ionization" of a beeswax candle? TheSPY 14:45, 15 December 2005 (UTC)TheSPY

I googled and found this:

Beeswax, derived from flowers and bees, is nontoxic, naturally aromatic, and when burned emits beneficial negative ions that actually help purify the air. (metroactive.com)

I have searched extensively for scientific research or studies on the "negative ionization" of beeswax and have found nothing. I have found lots of people making the same claim using the same words but no proof.

[edit] Filtering beaswax

I have some beeswax in bars but need to filter it before I can use it and have not been able to find any information on that subject. Can anyone help me with that?

Look in Beesource.com It contains more info than you want to know. Shoefly 02:44, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
