The World's healthiest meal

A team of researchers inspired by 222 food-related health claims recently approved by the European Commission have come up with one meal that incorporates them all. It's an airline meal concept that includes:
-Starter: fresh and smoked salmon terrine that have the claim to be good for the arteries, heart, and the brain. Plus a high fiber multigrain roll which covers 17 health claims in one bun
-Salad: mixed leaf side salad with an extra virgin olive oil dressing that is aimed at maintaining normal cholesterol levels.
-Main dish: chicken casserole with lentils and vegetables that covers claims related to iron absorption and minerals. Moreover, the panthotenic acid found in lentils can help reduce tiredness and improve mental performance.
-Dessert: live yogurt blancmange pudding featuring walnuts and a sugar-free caramel flavoured sauce that helps maintain the health of your teeth and gut as well as a healthy blood glucose level.
-Drink: customed cranberry, raspberry and elderflower flavoured sports drink that is rich in nutrients such as biotin, calcium, zinc, chromium, copper, iron, potassium, selenium and magnesium. Not to forget also spring water.

This menu promises to be appetizing and tasty and the dishes could work just as well at home too.
