Why is glass seemingly healthier to use than plastic? Is it because it is more “natural?”

Two main reasons:

1. Plastics have a tendency to break down into small particles, that can be then absorbed by your cells.
2. Glass is produced using a physical method. It is basically sand molten down and formed into a container. Plastic production is chemical. It involves usage of potentially harmful substances that may be then released from the product.
