The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this Report).  This Report contains certain forward-looking statements and the Companys future operating results could differ materially from those discussed herein.  Our disclosure and analysis included in this Report concerning our operations, cash flows and financial position, including, in particular, the likelihood of our success in expanding our business and raising debt and capital securities include forward-looking statements.

Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including prevailing market conditions and are more fully described under Part I, Item 1A  Risk Factors of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.  New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these events or how they may affect us.  In any event, these and other important factors, including those set forth in Item 1A  Risk Factors of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 may cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by our forward-looking statements.  Although we believe that these statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, we cannot guarantee future results and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect managements opinions only as of the date of this filing.

69,524  The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements.  6     VYSTAR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  NOTE 1 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS  Vystar Corporation (Vystar, the Company, we, us, or our) is the creator and exclusive owner of the innovative technology to produce Vytex® Natural Rubber Latex ("NRL").  On September 13, 2012, the Company acquired SleepHealth, LLC and SleepHealth North Carolina, LLC (SleepHealth), privately-held sleep diagnostic companies headquartered in Monroe, Georgia.  SleepHealth provides sleep lab management services to physicians offices, specialty and multi-specialty clinics in Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina. In addition, on June 28, 2013, Vystar Corporation (the Company) completed the acquisition of Kiron Clinical Sleep Lab, LLC (Kiron) a vertically integrated sleep diagnostic practice located in Durham, NC.  As a result of the acquisition, Vystar Corporation is comprised of two segments, a Vytex Division, focused on expanding the licensing and utilization of its proprietary source natural rubber latex technology and a SleepHealth Division focused on the sleep diagnostic and Durable Medical Equipment (DME) businesses.  NOTE 2 BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  Basis of Presentation  The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information.  Accordingly, certain information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements may be condensed or omitted.  These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").  In the opinion of Vystar management, these financial statements contain all adjustments (which comprise only normal and recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations as of and for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.  Estimates  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying disclosures.  Although these estimates are based on managements best knowledge of current events and actions the Company may undertake in the future, actual results could differ from these estimates.  Examples include valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, provisions for bad debts, and fair values of share-based compensation.  Concentration of Credit Risk  Certain financial instruments potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk.  These financial instruments consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable.  Cash held in banks in many cases exceeds the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, insurance limits.  While we monitor our cash balances on a regular basis and adjust the balances as appropriate, these balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions fail.  To date, we have experienced no loss or lack of access to our cash; however, we can provide no assurances that access to our cash will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the financial markets.  Inventory  Inventory consisting of Vytex NRL is stated at the lower of cost or market and cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.  Loss Per Share  Because the Company reported a net loss for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, common stock equivalents, including stock options and warrants, were anti-dilutive; therefore, the amounts reported for basic and dilutive loss per share were the same.  Excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share were options outstanding to purchase 7,188,239 shares and 5,051,667 shares of common stock for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.  Warrants to purchase 12,204,706 shares and 10,184,308 shares of common stock for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, were also excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.  Revenues  The Vytex segment derives revenue from sales of or license fees of Vytex NRL raw material to manufacturers and distributors of rubber and rubber end products.  Under both the direct and licensing agreement sales, the Vytex segment recognizes revenue at the time product is shipped and title passes to the customer. Revenue is recognized when the following four criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) shipment or delivery has occurred; (3) the price is fixed or determinable and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.  7    The SleepHealth segment bills its physician base of customers at the end of each month for services provided in that month and is not dependent on the physician collecting from insurance providers or from the patients.  The SleepHealth segment recognizes revenue each month for sleep diagnostic services as services are provided.  The Kiron segment bills insurance providers and patients directly and is dependent on the practices ability to collect from healthcare insurance providers and from its patients.  The Kiron segment recognizes revenue each month for sleep services as services are provided.  Fair Value of Financial Instruments  The Companys financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, line of credit and shareholder notes payable.  The carrying values of all the Companys financial instruments approximate fair value because of their short maturities.  In addition to the short maturities, the carrying amounts of our line of credit and shareholder notes payable approximate fair value because the interest rates at September 30, 2013 approximate market interest rates for the respective borrowings.  In specific circumstances, certain assets and liabilities are reported or disclosed at fair value.  Fair value is the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the Company's principal market for such transactions.  If there is not an established principal market, fair value is derived from the most advantageous market.  Valuation inputs are classified in the following hierarchy:  ·Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.·Level 2 inputs are directly or indirectly observable valuation inputs for the asset or liability, excluding Level 1 inputs.·Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.  Highest priority is given to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.  Acceptable valuation techniques include the market approach, income approach, and cost approach.  In some cases, more than one valuation technique is used.  NOTE 3 ACQUISITON OF KIRON CLINICAL SLEEP LAB, LLC  On June 28, 2013, Vystar Corporation entered into an LLC Ownership Interest Purchase Agreement (the Agreement) with Michael Soo, M.D. (Seller), the sole member of Kiron Clinical Sleep Lab, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company (Kiron) to purchase all outstanding membership and ownership interests of Kiron, and on July 1, 2013 completed such purchase (the Purchase). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company:  (a)   Paid $90,000 cash to Seller; (b)   Issued 727,434 shares of Vystar common stock to Seller; and (c)   Shall pay two percent (2%) of Kirons gross receipts received by the Company after the Closing Date of the Acquisition for a period of five (5) years.  In addition, the Company agreed to pay an additional $60,000 (the Adjustment Amount), $10,000 in cash and $50,000 in shares of Vystar common stock, in the event the audited financial results of Kiron for the year-end 2011, 2012, and the first six (6) months of 2013 were within two percent (2%) variability of the Statement of Revenues and Expenses provided by the Seller at closing for the periods referenced above.  In the event the audited financial results were within three percent (3%) variability, fifty percent (50%) of the Adjustment Amount would be paid to the Seller.  As this calculation is subject to audit, managements current estimate is subject to change. The current estimate of the fair value of the contingent consideration is $0.  The completed audit of Kirons 2011 and 2012 financial statements showed financial results that exceeded the three percent (3%) variability allowed under the Agreement and thus the $60,000 Adjustment Amount was forfeited.  In addition, the Seller resigned from the role of Medical Director and as such has forfeited the two percent (2%) of gross receipts for five (5) years that was included in the original consideration.  The Purchase Consideration was therefore adjusted to $140,000 and all initial Goodwill associated with the purchase was written-off.  At closing, the Company and Seller entered into an agreement (Contract) pursuant to which the Seller through his medical practice, Durham Neurology, PLLC, a wholly owned professional limited liability company would provide ongoing clinical and medical services to the Company and Kiron as Medical Director.  The Seller subsequently dissolved Durham Neurology, PLLC in October 2013 leaving Kiron without a Medical Director.  On March 10, 2014, Vystar and Kiron filed Civil Suit 74A-07997-1 IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF GWINNETT COUNTY, STATE OF GEORGIA against Michael Soo, MD and Durham Neurology, PLLC for multiple breaches of the Agreement and Contract.  Potential settlement discussions are currently taking place but there is no evidence that they will be successful.  The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination as defined by ASC Topic 805  Business Combinations.  As of the date of this filing, the purchase price allocation and valuation has not been finalized, and is subject to change.  8     Value of 727,434 shares issued at $0.0688 per share$

NOTE 4 LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN  The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.  However, the Company has incurred significant losses and experienced negative cash flow since its inception.  At September 30, 2013, the Company had cash of $35,875 and a deficit in working capital of $2,238,969.  Further, at September 30, 2013, the accumulated deficit amounted to $22,368,546.  As a result of the Company's history of losses and financial condition, there is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.  A successful transition to attaining profitable operations is dependent upon obtaining sufficient financing to fund the Companys planned expenses and achieving a level of revenue adequate to support the Companys cost structure.  Management has completed a year-long cost cutting and reorganization plan culminating in the closing of SleepHealth, LLC division in January 2014.  Management plans to finance future operations through the use of cash on hand, increased revenue from better utilization of existing Kiron facilities, increased revenue from Vytex division license fees, our credit facility, accounts receivable financing, stock warrant exercises from existing shareholders, raising capital through private placements of capital stock and debt.  Our future expenditures will depend on numerous factors, including: the rate at which we can introduce and license Vytex NRL to manufacturers; the costs of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual property rights; market acceptance of our products and services; competing technological developments; and the rate at which we are able to build Kirons Sleep Diagnostic and Durable Medical Equipment (DME) business.  As we expand our activities and operations, our cash requirements are expected to increase at a rate consistent with revenue growth after we have achieved sustained revenue generation.  There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to achieve its projected level of revenue in 2013 and beyond.  If the Company is unable to achieve its projected revenue and is not able to obtain alternate additional financing of equity or debt, the Company would need to significantly curtail or reorient its operations during 2013, which could have a material adverse effect on the Companys ability to achieve its business objectives and as a result may require the Company to file for bankruptcy or cease operations.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts classified as liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be forced to take any such actions.

NOTE 8 NOTES PAYABLE AND LOAN FACILITY  Secured Borrowing  On March 7, 2013, the Company executed with Summit Financial Resources, L.P. a Hawaii limited partnership (Summit), a Financing and Security Agreement (A/R Financing Facility or Facility) with a maximum credit line of $250,000 in which the Company receives advances on its Eligible Receivables, as defined in the Agreement.  Summit will advance up to 65% of a receivables face value and interest accrues on the outstanding advances at a rate of Prime + 1.25% (as of September 30, 2013 the rate on the facility was 4.50%) and a management fee of 0.4% of the receivables face amount is charged for each 15 day period the receivable remains unpaid.  The advances are repaid upon collection of the receivables.  As of September 30, 2013 the outstanding balance under the Facility was $31,036.  With the closing of the Sleephealth division in January of 2014, this Facility was no longer needed and on April 4, 2014 Vystar made a final payment to close this line of credit established with Summit.  Bank Line of Credit  On September 13, 2012, the Company as part of the acquisition of SleepHealth, LLC, assumed a line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. which is (i) unsecured, (ii) bears interest at an annual rate of Prime plus 1.1% (as of September 30, 2013 was 4.35%), and (iii) is payable upon demand.  As of September 30, 2013 the balance under the line of credit was $49,737.  Related Party Line of Credit (CMA Note Payable)  On April 29, 2011, the Company executed with CMA Investments, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company (CMA), a line of credit with a principal amount of up to $800,000 (the CMA Note).  CMA is a limited liability company of which three of the directors of the Company (CMA directors) were initially the members.  Pursuant to the terms of the CMA Note, the Company may draw up to a maximum principal amount of $800,000.  Interest, is computed at LIBOR plus 5.25% (5.47% at September 30, 2013), on amounts drawn and fees.  The weighted average interest rate in effect on the borrowings for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was 5.48%.  12    Other terms of the CMA Note include:  · The Note is unsecured. · No payments of principal are due until the second anniversary of the Note, at which time all outstanding principal is due and payable; and · As compensation to the directors for providing the Note, the Company issued warrants to purchase 2,600,000 shares of the Companys common stock to the CMA Directors at $0.45 per share, which was the closing price of the Companys stock on April 29, 2011, which vest 20% immediately and 10% upon each draw by the Company of $100,000 under the Note.  Because the warrants were issued and valued prior to the receipt of funds under this loan, no discount could be recorded and, accordingly, the value of the warrants was capitalized as a financing cost.  The costs are being amortized on a straight line basis over the term of the Note.  On September 14, 2011, the Companys Board of Directors approved increasing the line of credit with CMA by $200,000 to a maximum principal amount of $1,000,000 and the Companys Chairman and Chief Executive Officer became a member of CMA.  As compensation to the CMA Directors for increasing the amount available under the CMA Note, the Board of Directors approved modifying the exercise price for the 2,600,000 compensatory stock purchase warrants previously issued to the Directors from $0.45 to $0.27 per share, which was the closing price of the Companys common stock on that date and the Company also issued warrants to purchase an additional 1,600,000 shares of the Companys stock at $0.27 per share, which was the closing price of the Companys common stock on September 14, 2011, which vest upon the original terms of the CMA Note.  The costs incurred in the modification of the exercise price of the 2,600,000 compensatory stock purchase warrants issued on April 29, 2011 and the additional 1,600,000 warrants issued on September 14, 2011 are being amortized on a straight line basis over the remaining term of the CMA Note.  On November 2, 2012, the Board of Directors approved an increase in the CMA line of credit from $1,000,000 to $1,500,000.  As compensation to the CMA Directors for increasing the amount available under the CMA Note, warrants to purchase an additional 2,100,000 shares of the Companys stock at $0.35 per share were issued and recorded as deferred financing cost to be amortized through interest expense over the remaining term of the CMA Note.  Amortization of the financing costs associated with the CMA Note amounted to $96,433 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and $198,124 and $289,299 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 respectively.  There was no amortization cost for the three months ended September 30, 2013.  On April 29, 2013, the maturity date of the CMA Note was extended to April 29, 2014.  As compensation to the CMA Directors for extending the maturity date of the CMA Note, the Board of Directors approved modifying the exercise price for the 6,300,000 compensatory stock purchase warrants previously issued to the Directors to $0.10 per share and the CMA Directors forfeited 630,000 of the warrants.  Amortization of the financing costs associated with extending the CMA Note was amortized through interest expense.  Shareholder Notes Payable  All of the Companys Shareholder Promissory Notes are carried on the balance sheet at face value under Long Term Debt, net of accrued interest which is carried on the balance sheet under Accrued Expenses.  On March 11, 2011, the Company issued to seven existing shareholders of the Company an aggregate of $400,000 of convertible Shareholder Notes (the Notes) together with warrants to purchase an aggregate of 160,000 shares of the Companys common stock at $0.68 per share for two years from the date of issuance.  Such Notes are (i) unsecured, (ii) bear interest at an annual rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from January 1, 2011, and (iii) are convertible into shares of the Companys common stock at the conversion rate of $0.68 of principal and interest for each such share.  The principal and accrued interest came due on March 11, 2013.  Four of the holders of these notes with a total initial principal amount of $200,000 agreed to convert their notes and accumulated interest to the Companys 10% Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock.  The remaining holders of notes have agreed to extend the maturity date until March 11, 2015.  On May 31, 2011, the Company issued to three existing shareholders of the Company an aggregate of $125,000 of convertible promissory notes (the Shareholder Notes) together with warrants to purchase an aggregate of 50,000 shares of the Companys common stock at $0.49 per share for two years from the date of issuance.  Such Shareholder Notes are (i) unsecured, (ii) bear interest at an annual rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from date of issuance, and (iii) are convertible at any time until maturity at the holders option into shares of the Companys common stock at a weighted average conversion rate of $0.49 of principal and interest for each such share.  Accumulated interest and principal came due on May 31, 2013.  One of the Shareholder Notes with an outstanding balance of $30,000 was retired.  The holders of the other two Shareholder Notes issued on May 31, 2011 having an initial principal balance of $100,000 agreed to extend the maturity date by two years and these notes with accumulated interest will be due on May 31, 2015.  The computed value of the warrants issued in connection with the Shareholder Notes issued in March and May 2011, was determined to be $29,287 and was reflected as a debt discount and netted against the Shareholder Notes on the balance sheet.  Additionally, in conjunction with this transaction, the Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature, given the price allocated to the Shareholder Notes was less than the market price on the date of issuance, creating an intrinsic value in the conversion option.  An additional $29,287 was recorded as a reduction in the Shareholder Notes and an increase in paid in capital for the intrinsic value of the conversion feature.  The debt discount and beneficial conversion feature amount are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the Shareholder Notes under the effective interest method at 15.58%.  13    On October 7, 2011, the Companys Board of Directors approved modifying the exercise price for the 210,000 stock purchase warrants previously issued to existing shareholders holding convertible promissory notes to $0.27 per share, the closing price of the Companys common stock on September 14, 2011, the date when the exercise price of warrants previously issued to the Companys CMA Directors for providing the CMA Note were modified to $0.27 per share.  The Company incurred $10,105 in interest expense for the repricing of the warrants.  As of September 30, 2013 none of the warrants had been exercised and all have expired.  The current base conversion price for the above referenced Shareholder Notes with an outstanding balance as of September 30, 2013 of $645,252 including accrued interest, is $0.10 per share or 6,452,530 shares of the Companys common stock.

NOTE 10 SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION  Generally accepted accounting principles require share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values at the date of grant, net of estimated forfeitures.  15    Options  The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the grant-date fair value of awards granted.   The following assumptions were used for option awards during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.  No option awards were granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2012:   Expected Dividend Yield  because we do not currently pay dividends, the expected dividend yield is zero;  Expected Volatility in Stock Price  volatility based our own trading activity was used to determine expected volatility;  Risk-free Interest Rate  reflects the average rate on a United States Treasury bond with maturity equal to the expected term of the option; and  Expected Life of Awards  because we have minimal experience with the exercise of options or warrants for use in determining the expected life for each award, we used the options contractual term as the expected life.  The weighted-average assumptions used in the option pricing model for stock option grants were as follows for the nine months ended September 30, 2013: 2013 Expected Dividend Yield 0.00% Expected Volatility of Stock Price 120.91% Risk-Free Interest Rate 1.98% Weighted Average Fair Value at Grant Date $0.14/share Expected Life of Awards, Years 10 years  In total, the Company recorded $279,065 and $75,604 of stock-based compensation expense for the three month period ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively and $614,392 and $262,843 of stock-based compensation expense for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, related to employee and board member stock options and stock and warrants issued to nonemployees.  As of September 30, 2013, $367,183 of unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested share-based awards remains to be recognized over a period of approximately 3 years.  During 2004, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a stock option plan (the Plan) and authorized up to 4,000,000 shares to be issued under the Plan.  In April 2009, the Companys Board of Directors authorized an increase in the number of shares to be issued under the Plan to 10,000,000 shares, which was also approved by the Companys shareholders, and to include the independent Board members in the plan in lieu of continuing the previous practice of granting warrants each quarter to independent board members for services.  At September 30, 2013, there were 2,811,761 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Plan.  The Plan is intended to permit stock options granted to employees to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (Incentive Stock Options).  All options granted under the Plan that are not intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options are deemed to be non-qualified options.  Stock options are typically granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Companys common stock on the date of grant, typically vest over periods up to 4 years and are typically exercisable up to 10 years.

All of the warrants vested immediately.  The fair value of the warrants was calculated as of the date of the grant utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model and assumptions as detailed above.  The total amount of the fair value was $73,964 and was recorded as noncash share-based compensation expense when vesting occurred.  The Company also issued 20,000 warrants associated with a private placement offering of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $0.35.  The fair value of the private placement warrants was $3,502.

Total gross proceeds of the issuances were $279,500. No commissions were paid.  All warrants issued to investors (a) are exercisable at $.05 per share of common stock, (b) do not have cashless exercise rights, and (c) are exercisable for two years. The shares of common stock and warrants were offered and sold in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  17       ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS  OVERVIEW  Vystar Corporation (Vystar, the Company, we, us, or our) is the creator and exclusive owner of the innovative technology to produce Vytex® Natural Rubber Latex ("NRL"). This technology reduces antigenic protein and non-rubbers in natural rubber latex to virtually undetectable levels. With non-latex products growing at a rapid rate, the costs for these alternative materials incurred by the manufacturers of these many different products have greatly decreased with nearly all substitute materials being more expensive than NRL. This fact has changed in the past thirteen months as NRL prices have decreased and continue to fluctuate in the mid-priced zone.  Supply for nitrile and neoprene has grown dramatically in the past year as additional facilities have come on line with many more planned, mostly in SE Asia.  We have introduced Vytex NRL, our ultra-low protein natural rubber latex, throughout the worldwide marketplace that uses NRL or latex substitutes as a component of manufactured products and we have recently approved an ultra-low ammonia version for limited exposure on the workers in the manufacturing world. Recent industry estimates have the total rubber market at 11 million dry metric tons of which just over 1.2 million tons are in liquid latex form. There are more than 40,000 products made from the liquid latex while the other eight million plus tons are used to produce tires and other hard rubber products. Natural rubber latex is used in an extensive range of products including balloons, textiles, footwear and clothing (threads), adhesives, foams, furniture, carpet, paints, coatings, protective equipment, sporting equipment, and specialty health care products such as condoms, surgical and exam gloves, catheters and other items.  We are now involved in expanding our operations, particularly increasing market acceptance and sales of Vytex NRL through our new operating agreement with CT Group (CT).  As we approach the middle of the first year of this agreement we feel we are better prepared to handle the consistent orders by utilizing CTs ability to hedge raw material pricing, consistently produce larger quantities, store the  various forms of Vytex NRL effectively, package and ship, collect and pay Vystar its royalties. The sales cycle generally starts with a laboratory analysis of Vytex NRL whereby physical properties and protein levels of the finished goods are tested by potential customers to ensure it meets the required specifications and then progresses to a full production run on the manufacturers equipment.  CT recently shipped a manufacturing trial order to a major producer of adhesives for use in a few different industries such as shoe adhesives and food labeling.  The decision to convert to Vytex NRL is impacted by many functional areas including research and development, manufacturing, sales, marketing, purchasing and finance.   Each of these areas has a significantly different decision-making role per company thus the large difference in the sales cycle.  If the product is regulated and requires regulatory clearances or approvals prior to commercialization, the sales cycle could be extended by another nine to twelve months for testing, filing and agency review.  By diversifying the target product categories we believe this balanced approach will reduce our exposure to individual market fluctuations and increase our aggregate revenues.  Vystar is also in preliminary talks to license its Vytex NRL patented technologies into the alternative rubber arena by teaming up with a startup company in that realm.  The market potential for this type of collaboration has yet to be determined.  For product applications requiring a lower level of ammonia, a new grade of Vytex NRL has been developed and sampling has begun for this ultra-low ammonia product grade with an alkalinity of MAX 0.15%.  The targeted product applications for this product include various adhesive makers and manufacturers with factories restricted by adequate ventilation.  A further modified Vytex NRL with an even lower ammonia content is now available called Vytex NRL 05.  This new product grade has an alkalinity of MAX <0.05%.  The targeted product applications for this product are primarily skin contact products such as cosmetic adhesives and body paint.  These two new low ammonia product offerings address the manufacturers and workers needs and also provide the end user with a less odorous product.  As noted in a press release issued March 19, 2014, Vystar announced a strategic directional shift taking it into the multi-billion dollar foam market using its patented Vytex NRL raw material.  That raw material is then transformed by its Guatemalan partner, Islatex, into foam that is whiter, lighter weight and free of the off-gassing common among competitors' memory foam products. Because Vytex NRL results in a more translucent and cleaner latex following the removal of proteins and non-rubbers, manufacturers' production costs are decreased by utilizing less chemicals, water, and processing to remove proteins, and less dyes and perfumes to cover up the yellow color and odor of non-Vytex natural rubber latex.  Vystar's alliances have been formed to include mattress and pillow producers in the United States, business development strategists, and selected retailers that are prepping for the arrival of foam pillow and mattress cores for showroom analysis, market research and select early sales efforts. Through these broad alliances, Vystar will offer a broad array of mattresses and pillows to meet consumer needs across the board. The first shipping container of foam which has been delivered to our wholesale manufacturer exemplifies the flexibility of what foam made with Vytex NRL will provide to our target audience in the global marketplace.  Vystar has moved into a targeted role in the North American foam industry and not only have specific large audiences been identified for Vytex foam but key markets and retail stores are ready to start offering mattresses and pillows for their customers. Retail is an early start but immediate sales efforts include varied avenues, and product iterations, to meet the needs of the consumer. This is the first time that Vystar will participate directly in end product sales.  18    Recent Developments  On June 28, 2013, Vystar Corporation entered into an LLC Ownership Interest Purchase Agreement (the Agreement) with Michael Soo, M.D. (Seller), the sole member of Kiron Clinical Sleep Lab, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company (Kiron) to purchase all outstanding membership and ownership interests of Kiron, and on July 1, 2013 completed such purchase (the Purchase). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company:  (a)   Paid $90,000 cash to Seller; (b)   Issued 727,434 shares of Vystar common stock to Seller; and (c)   Shall pay two percent (2%) of Kirons gross receipts received by the Company after the Closing Date of the Acquisition for a period of five (5) years.  In addition, the Company agreed to pay an additional $60,000 (the Adjustment Amount), $10,000 in cash and $50,000 in shares of Vystar common stock, in the event the audited financial results of Kiron for the year-end 2011, 2012, and the first six (6) months of 2013 were within two percent (2%) variability of the Statement of Revenues and Expenses provided by the Seller at closing for the periods referenced above.  In the event the audited financial results were within three percent (3%) variability, fifty percent (50%) of the Adjustment Amount would be paid to the Seller.  As this calculation is subject to audit, managements current estimate is subject to change. The current estimate of the fair value of the contingent consideration is $0.  The completed audit of Kirons 2011 and 2012 financial statements showed financial results that exceeded the three percent (3%) variability allowed under the Agreement and thus the $60,000 Adjustment Amount was forfeited.  In addition, the Seller resigned from the role of Medical Director and as such has forfeited the two percent (2%) of gross receipts for five (5) years that was included in the original consideration.  The Purchase Consideration was therefore adjusted to $140,000 and all initial Goodwill associated with the purchase was written-off.  At closing, the Company and Seller entered into an agreement (Contract) pursuant to which the Seller through his medical practice, Durham Neurology, PLLC, a wholly owned professional limited liability company would provide ongoing clinical and medical services to the Company and Kiron as Medical Director.  The Seller subsequently dissolved Durham Neurology, PLLC in October 2013 leaving Kiron without a Medical Director.  On March 10, 2014, Vystar and Kiron filed Civil Suit 74A-07997-1 IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF GWINNETT COUNTY, STATE OF GEORGIA against Michael Soo, MD and Durham Neuorolgy, PLLC for multiple breaches of the Agreement and Contract.  Potential settlement discussions are currently taking place but there is no evidence that they will be successful.  On December 24, 2013, Vystar entered into an Independent Contractor Agreement with Jamila Randolph Battle, MD, a North Carolina physician and sleep specialist, to assume the role of Medical Director for Kiron on January 1, 2014.  Dr. Battle received her undergraduate degree from Duke University and her medical degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine. She completed her family medicine residency at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Upon completion of her training she returned to North Carolina where she practiced family medicine and served as a consulting associate at Duke Family Medicine. In 2010 she began formal training and education with The School of Sleep Medicine in Palo Alto, California and the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN.  In 2012, she became Board Certified in Sleep Medicine.  Since this time Kiron has re-established its practice with sleep consultations, sleep studies, CPAP titrations studies, CPAP clinics and a solid re-supply business focusing on its existing and growing patient base.  The SleepHealth, LLC (SleepHealth), acquisition made on September 13, was expected to be mutually beneficial by providing each company with new expansion options and presented an indirect vertical integration opportunity as a potential channel for Vystars recently announced Vytex® NRL foam bedding products such as pillows, mattresses, and mattress toppers.  Since the acquisition, local hospitals have taken over several of our profitable locations, we were forced to close other locations due to a lack of payment for our services and our efforts to increase contract pricing with our remaining locations to a profitable level have failed.  The Durable Medical Equipment business which was a primary driver in the decision to acquire SleepHealth has never materialized and early in 2014, Vystar made the decision to suspend operations and transferred the remaining accounts to the SleepHealth management team, sold the remaining SleepHealth assets and will focus on its wholly owned Kiron facility in addition to Vystars growing natural rubber latex business and Vytex foam mattress and pillow offerings.  As previously noted, Vystar has been in discussions with parties in the alternate rubber arena to license its technologies for removal of proteins from alternate latex sources that have been shown to contain similar proteins.  These discussions have intensified as this alternate industry has added companies that show strong potential to fill a possible void in future demand.  The European Patent Office issued a Decision to Grant Vystars patent application under European Patent Number 1 902 089 titled Decreasing Allergenicity of Natural Latex Rubber Prior to Vulcanization greatly expanding the territory covered by the Companys intellectual property portfolio.  The mention of the grant is being published in the European Patent Bulletin 13/35 dated 28 August 2013.  Based on its existing customer base and potential for advanced sales in Europe, Vystar focused in on three countries: Germany, Austria and Great Britain.  Proper translations and formattings have been done to put these patents in place.  19    Recently, after two presentations to technical audiences, Vystar has been approached by companies with novel ideas that include the use of its Vytex NRL raw material.  Also, and after these presentations, Vystar has also started discussions with two South East Asian makers of foam products to use its Vytex NRL raw material in their current offerings in their own areas, one being a potential wholesale replacement for foam mattresses going into hospital beds that require the use of a raw material natural rubber latex with the lowest protein content possible.  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS  Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2013 with the Three Months Ended September 30, 2012  Revenues  Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 were $430,252and $95,553, respectively, for an increase of $334,699 or 350%.  The increase in revenues was due to the $183,400 in fees from Kiron and an increase of $182,840 in fees from SleepHealth, offset by a decrease in Vytex sales of $31,541.

Other Income (Expense)  Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, consisted of $2,440 of other income, interest income of $6,543and interest expense of $366,887.  This compares to $5,250 of other income, $522 of interest income and interest expense of $421,870 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  Net Loss  Net loss was $1,962,999 and $1,847,382 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, an increase of $115,617 or 6.26% in the net loss.  LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES  As of September 30, 2013, we had current assets of $337,932, including $35,875 in cash, and $2,576,901 of current liabilities, or negative working capital of $2,238,969.  We use working capital to finance our ongoing operations and since those operations do not currently cover our operating costs, managing working capital is essential to our companys future success.  As a result of the Company's history of losses and financial condition, there is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.  21    A successful transition to attaining profitable operations is dependent upon obtaining sufficient financing to fund the Companys planned expenses and achieving a level of revenues adequate to support the Companys cost structure.  Vystar Management recently completed a year-long expense reduction and reorganization plan culminating with the closing of the Sleephealth division in January 2014.  Management plans to finance future operations through the use of cash on hand, increased revenues, and opportunistic private placements of common stock, preferred stock and debt securities.  As the Companys product continues to gain market acceptance, the Company expects sales in 2013 and beyond to continually increase.  There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to achieve its projected level of revenues in 2014 and beyond.  If the Company is unable to achieve its projected revenues and is not able to obtain alternate additional financing of equity or debt, the Company would need to significantly curtail or reorient its operations during 2014, which could have a material adverse effect on the Companys ability to achieve its business objectives and as a result may require the Company to file for bankruptcy or cease operations.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts classified as liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be forced to take any such actions.  Sources and Uses of Cash  For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, net cash used in operations was $663,583and $1,172,786 respectively.  The negative cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 resulted primarily from the net loss of $1,962,999reduced by non-cash charges related to non-cash share-based compensation expense of $614,392 and amortization of deferred financing costs of $244,001.  The negative cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 resulted primarily from the net loss of $1,847,382 reduced by non-cash charges related to non-cash share-based compensation expense of $346,414 and amortization expense of $346,107.  Net cash used by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $78,887 consisting of $8,035 used for legal and other costs associated with our patents, $69,524 for the acquisition of Kiron, and $1,328 for equipment purchases, compared to $72,264 used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $686,426 comprised of $105,000 in proceeds from the sale of common stock and warrants, $70,000 under the CMA Note, $269,682 in net proceeds from the sale of preferred stock, $240,769 in net proceeds from shareholder notes, and net proceeds of $31,036 provided under the A/R facility offset by the use of $30,061 in payments on notes payable.  Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $1,276,173 consisting primarily of $1,230,150 of proceeds from the sale of common stock and proceeds of $61,125 from the CMA Note.  Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements  We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that may be reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations.  DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS  Our Managements Discussion and Analysis contains not only statements that are historical facts, but also statements that are forward-looking (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include international, national and local general economic and market conditions; demographic changes; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth;  product development, introduction and acceptance; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other risks that might be detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Although the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.

Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to the reasonable assurance level.  (B)     Changes in internal control over financial reporting  We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment.  Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.  There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first 9 months of 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.    PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION  ITEM 1.         LEGAL PROCEEDINGS  At closing of the Kiron Clinical Sleep Lab, LLC acquisition, the Company and Seller entered into an agreement (Contract) pursuant to which the Seller through his medical practice, Durham Neurology, PLLC, a wholly owned professional limited liability company would provide ongoing clinical and medical services to the Company and Kiron as Medical Director.  The Seller subsequently dissolved Durham Neurology, PLLC in October 2013 leaving Kiron without a Medical Director.  On March 10, 2014, Vystar and Kiron filed Civil Suit 74A-07997-1 IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF GWINNETT COUNTY, STATE OF GEORGIA against Michael Soo, MD and Durham Neuorolgy, PLLC for multiple breaches of the Agreement and Contract.  Potential settlement discussions are currently taking place but there is no evidence that they will be successful.  On March 26, 2014, Vystar settled a potential suit by a former contractor of which the terms remain confidential.  The effect of will be an elimination of an account payable in the amount of $15,000 for $750.   ITEM 2.
