GLASGOW, Scotland (Reuters) -- Good news for chocoholics. The treat favored
by millions is also good for you, researchers said on Monday.
Chocolate contains compounds called flavonoids that can help maintain a healthy heart and good
circulation and reduce blood clotting -- which can cause heart attacks and strokes.
"More and more, we are finding evidence that consumption of chocolate that is rich in flavonoids
can have positive cardiovascular effects," Carl Keen, a nutritionist at the University of California,
Davis, told a science
conference here.
"We not only have observed an increase in antioxidant capacity after chocolate consumption, but
also modulation of certain compounds which affect blood vessels."
Antioxidants are substances that help reduce the damage of cancer-causing charged particles in
the body. Fruits, vegetables, nuts and whole grains are high in antioxidant vitamins such as C and
E.
Not all chocolate created equal Flavonoids in chocolate are derived from cocoa, which is rich in
the compounds. Research has shown that a small bar of dark chocolate contains as many
flavonoids as six apples, 4.5 cups of tea, 28 glasses of white wine and two glasses of red.
ODS - What is it?
• In previous versions of SAS Datastep and
procedures produced output directly
• Output was produced for mainframe
printing using line printers (monospaced
fonts)
• Graphics were produced for plotters
• Very little control over appearance
ODS – Output Delivery System
• Scopo della giornata di corso è quello di
introdurre le tecniche per utilizzare questa
nuova funzionalità disponibile con la
Versione 8 di SAS per la produzione di
output (listati, tabelle, pagine HTML,
dataset SAS) e la generazione di template
e stili per la produzione automatica di
questi tipi di output.
ODS – Output Delivery System
• Version 8 saw introduction of ODS
• Datastep and procedures now produce
output objects
• ODS processes these output objects and
produces required output
• ODS can produce in the following formats
HTML, PDF, RTF, CSV, JPEG, GIF,
Postscript, XML, etc.
