The sheer amount of changes that occur on a plant-based diet are too numerous for me to be able to pinpoint any specific thing. It wouldn't surprise me if I do get more vitamin a these days, as well as quite a few other important micronutrients that I may or may not have been low on.
And that's not even getting into the vast topic of phytonutrients.
Or just use flatpak or Appimage.
Is the Snap backend available and open-source? If not, then it's antithetical to software freedom because Canonical is trying to close their users into a walled garden in the ways that Apple and Google are with their app stores.
There are plenty of software packaging systems that work just as well or better than Snap, and promote software freedom (Flatpak, Appimage, or even just traditional package managers). By using and promoting Snap over these, you are working against the growth of digital rights.
It's impossible to have a fully free system?

But more to your point, it's a false dichotomy. Even before the latest changes to the Debian install media, for years it was maybe unintuitive but still easy enough to just choose the "nonfree" install iso. That one would automatically include all the proprietary bits that are necessary for a fully functional Linux system.
But now those nonfree parts are in the Debian install by default, so there really is just nothing that you get from Ubuntu that can't just as easily work in Debian - especially since everyone is moving toward flatpaks, and appimages anyway.
But you're also promoting Ubuntu's continued use, when Snaps are just one example of Canonical being antithetical to free software values. Mint is all the benefits of Ubuntu without that garbage, so why not that?
Snap should be reason enough that everyone should abandon Ubuntu, especially when Mint is right there. The last thing we need is to make Linux more like Android+Google Play.
The last straw with consoles for me was when they all started charging money regularly just to play online multiplayer games.
My Steam Deck makes for a better console-like experience than any of the major consoles, and more. I have zero interest in going back to Sony or especially Nintendo's scams.
The thing about these salt substitutes is that more studies are needed, just because there's few of them. The evidence is very promising though, and people switching to these substitutes has been shown to distinctly lower blood pressure, and appears to make a difference for all-cause mortality.
Experts and industry leaders are looking into incorporating added potassium salt into their foods, so it's probably only a matter of time before virtually everything that everyone eats will have lower sodium and higher potassium.

Sorry, but this is dangerous misinformation that you're spreading. Refined carbohydrates are harmful and can contribute to the various forms of metabolic syndrome. However one thing being bad doesn't automatically make something good, and there is still no single factor in heart disease that's more causally linked than saturated fats. To demonize sugar and say fats don't play the most significant role is about equivalent with being a climate change denier.

They're somewhat more on the frontier of nutritional science, but no other interventions out there have had as promising of results as Esselstyn's and Ornish's lifestyle medicine practices - both of which call for reductions or even eliminations of cooking oil that is considered radical by most people's standards. But their results speak for themselves.
I don't, to be perfectly honest the builtin controls are the only part I don't like. Too heavy, too bulky, terrible dpad, and for me it's so uncomfortable to use the LR bumpers that I almost always remap them to the back paddles.
