                    NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                       NINE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2000
                       ---------------------------------

1.       Basis of Presentation:
         ----------------------

         The interim unaudited condensed financial statements furnished reflect
all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present
fairly its financial position as of August 31, 2000 and the results of
operations and statements of cash flows for the nine months ended August 31,
2000 and 1999. The balance sheet as of November 30, 1999 has been derived from
the audited balance sheet as of that date. This report should be read in
conjunction with the Company's annual report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended November 30, 1999. The results of operations and cash flows for the
nine months ended August 31, 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
concentrations of credit risk, as defined by Statement of Accounting Standards
No. 105, include trade accounts receivable. Wholesale distributors of
nutritional supplements 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 August 31,
2000 have been estimated using the gross profit method.

4.       Property, Plant and Equipment:
         ------------------------------

         Property, plant and equipment, at cost, consist of the following:

                                                    August 31,     November 30,

6.       Stockholders' Equity:
         ---------------------

         The loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the
average number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding during
the period. Common stock equivalents have been excluded from the calculation as
the effect is antidilutive.

7.       Income Taxes:
         -------------

         Effective December 17, 1999, the Company and its parent will file a
consolidated federal income tax return. The Company and its parent each report
current and deferred income tax expense (benefit) under an allocation method
that results in a profitable company recognizing a tax provision as if the
individual company filed a separate return and loss companies recognizing
benefits to the extent their losses contribute to reduce consolidated taxes. In
addition, during the nine months ended August 31, 2000 the change in the
valuation allowance ($197,000) of the Company's deferred tax asset resulting
from its ability to file a consolidated return with the parent was recorded as a
tax benefit on the books of the Company.

         The Consolidated current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recorded on the books of the parent, and the net tax-related balances due
to/from the parent are included in the intercompany balance. The tax-related
intercompany asset approximated $371,000 at August 31, 2000.

         Sales to two major customers each approximated 11% of total sales for
the nine month periods ended August 31, 2000 and 1999.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                 ---------------------------------------------

Forward-looking Statements
--------------------------

         This Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements made
that are not historical facts are forward-looking and, accordingly, involve
risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ
materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Although such
forward-looking statements have been based on reasonable assumptions, there is
no assurance that the expected results will be achieved. Some of the factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not
limited to: the effects of regulatory decisions; changes in law and other
governmental actions and initiatives; uncertainties relating to global economic
conditions; market acceptance of competing products; the availability and cost
of raw materials, the Company's ability to successfully maintain or increase
market share in its core business while expanding its product base into other
markets; the strength of its distribution channels; and the Company's ability to
manage fixed and variable expense growth relative to revenue growth.

Results of Operations
---------------------

         Net sales for the nine and three month periods ended August 31, 2000
approximated $4,833,000 and $1,584,000, respectively, as compared to $5,484,000
and $1,464,000 in the corresponding periods. The decline in sales is a result of
unfavorable market conditions and discontinued items. Gross profit on these
sales approximated $1,734,000 (36% of sales) and $563,000 (36% of sales) for the
nine and three month periods ended August 31, 2000 as compared to $2,249,000
(41% of sales) and $582,000 (40% of sales) in the corresponding period. The
decline in gross profit is a result of increased raw material and packaging
costs without a corresponding increase in selling price.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses approximated $2,212,000
(46% of sales) and $654,000 (41% of sales) for the nine and three months ended
August 31, 2000, respectively, as compared to $3,027,000 (55% of sales) and
$1,066,000 (73% of sales) for the corresponding periods in 1999. The decrease is
primarily attributable to the consolidation of sales territories and increased
telemarketing efforts with a resulting decrease in sales force salaries and
expenses.

         The Company has recognized an income tax benefit of approximately
$371,000 for the nine month period ended August 31, 2000. The benefit reflects
the potential utilization of certain tax benefits by the Company's parent as a
result of becoming eligible to file a consolidated tax return.

                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                 ---------------------------------------------
                                  (Continued)


         The Company has satisfactory implemented a plan to ensure that its
systems are compliant with the requirements to process transactions in the Year
2000. To date, the Company has not experienced any adverse effects related to
the Year 2000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

         The Company had net working capital of $3,481,000 at August 31, 2000.

         The Company's statement of cash flows reflects cash provided by
operations of approximately $246,000. This cash flow is comprised of a decrease
in inventories ($867,000) and an adjustment for depreciation and amortization of
($291,000), offset by a net loss of approximately ($107,000), increases in
operating assets such as accounts receivable ($351,000), prepaid income taxes
and other current assets ($144,000) and other assets ($244,000), and decreases
in accounts payable and accrued expenses ($57,000).

         Net cash used in investing activities approximated ($68,000) for the
purchase of property plant and equipment.

         The Company's Board of Directors has authorized the Company to
repurchase up to $2,000,000 of its own common stock, par value .0001, in the
public market. The Company's management has been afforded the discretion to
purchase the shares at such times, or times, and at such prices as management
believes appropriate. During the nine months ended August 31, 2000, the Company
acquired 48,185 shares of its common stock, at an average price of $4.13.

         As of August 31, 2000, the Company had authorization to repurchase an
additional $331,000 worth of its own common stock.

         The Company expects to meet its cash requirements from operations and
current cash reserves.
