Dr Amir Khan lifted the lid on the dangers of indoor air pollution

When you think of candles and wood-burning stoves, the first word that will likely come to mind for many is relaxation.

As reported by the Mirror, the doctor explained: "When we normally think of air pollution, we think of outside - cars, planes, emissions - that kind of thing. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that these small particles can be "dangerous" as they can get into the deep parts of your lungs or blood.

Dr Khan said: "Incense sticks, in particular, give off more than 100 times more fine particles than a scented candle. So, it’s a good idea to light these in well-aired large spaces."
