1.       Basis of Presentation:

         The interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement
of the financial position and results of operations for the six month periods
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. The financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the summary of significant accounting policies and notes to
financial statements included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2000. The results of operations for the six months ended
September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
for the full year.

2.       Concentration of Credit Risk:

         Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to credit
risk, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 105 ("FAS
105"), consists primarily of trade accounts receivable. Wholesale distributors
of dietary supplements and over-the-counter pharmaceuticals account for a
substantial portion of trade receivables. The risk associated with this
concentration is limited due to the large number of distributors and their
geographic dispersion.

3.       Inventories:

         Inventories, consisting principally of finished goods at September 30,
2000 have been estimated using the gross profit method.

dividends at $.12 per share, payable one year from the date of issuance.

6.      Commitments:

         The Company is party to an exclusive supply and licensing agreement
with PDK Labs Inc. ("PDK"), pursuant to which PDK granted the Company an
exclusive license to use the trademarks "Max Brand" and "Heads Up" brands of
OTCs and the exclusive right to distribute products bearing such names. In
April, 1998, the payment terms of this Agreement were amended wherein the
purchase price of the products were set at a (i) base price plus (ii) the
difference between 93% of the sales price to the Company's customers and the
base price. The amendment also prohibits the Company from supplying certain
products to convenience stores. In consideration for this agreement, the Company
agreed to pay an annual license fee of $500,000 to PDK. This fee is payable, at
the option of the Company, either in cash or in shares of the Company's common
stock or preferred stock. In June 2000 the Company paid PDK $500,000 to satisfy
its outstanding fee. Included in selling, general and administrative expenses is
$250,000 of this license fee for the six months ended September 30, 2000.
