[Stoves] blood analysis as heath impact certification for "clean" stoves

[B.C. Romero Orellana]

Yes they do.
In the case of traditional sauna, as was the case of measurements, it is
particularly intoxicating. It can be compared to a gas chamber. Even the
symptoms of poisoning are considered normal or what to feel. (perception of
risk). Even in the time I worked there for some cases were fatal.
