NEVER LIGHT CANDLE in AIR-CONDITIONED ROOM
For those who sleep in the air-conditioned room ........... A friend of mine has passed away recently, Please read the mail below and be careful.
Heard of a bad news regarding Charleine, who studied in MSMKL with some of us. She passed away last weekend due to carbon monoxide poisoning.
It happened when she lighted an aromatheraputic candle for the night in a room with air-conditioning on and all windows closed.
Due to lack of oxygen in the room, the burning of the candle cannot fully oxidized & thus forming dangerous carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide will prevent oxygen exchange in the lungs, resulting the person dozing off to state of unconsciousness & eventually death in less than 1 hour, depending on the room size.
this info is to make you aware of such danger when lighting aroma theraputic candles in any unventilated rooms...
Prevention is better than cure...
