Not-so-safe! “Flame-free” candles produce millions of nanoparticles per cc of air indoors, pose risk to lungs. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.e Similar to burning scented candles and using gas stoves indoors, or roadside exposures to diesel and natural-gas combustion engines.

It's estimated that about one-fifth of the global population are zinc deficient. This deficiency can disrupt the function of the immune system and raise the risk of pneumonia. Zinc deficiency is suspected to be a leading contributor to disease and mortality, according to The World Health Organization.

The article from @thenarwhal says:
"Wildfire smoke has three main ingredients. There are gases, such as carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide, and volatile organic compounds, like benzene, toluene and butene. There is also particulate matter, which can include soot, dust, pollen and spores, as well as chemical particles. The particles are classified according to size and fine particulates — the really tiny ones, less than 2.5 microns in diameter and typically referred to as PM2.5 — pose the greatest threats to human #health because they can travel deeper into the #lungs than larger ones...
For example, research released at this year’s #Alzheimers Association international conference found the risk of developing dementia following exposure to fine particulate matter from wildfire smoke was higher than the risk posed by other sources of air #pollution, even when the exposure to #wildfire smoke was less intense."

Humans breathe through their #lungs, taking in oxygen through the #nose and #mouth.
The skin contains sweat glands that release sweat, but this does not involve breathing.

It's important to be cautious when obtaining information. 👐
