Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the Company's financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere
in this filing.
Overview
The Company, an Arizona corporation, (the "Company") was formed in 1991
to develop dietary supplement products from natural plant extracts. The
Company is focusing its development efforts on certain plants and plant
extracts that are widely used throughout the United States and Europe to
treat a variety of diseases and physical conditions. The Company identifies
and quantifies the properties within plant sources that are believed to
provide therapeutic or other health benefits and to produce dietary
supplements.
Herbal supplements are multi-molecule compositions extracted or
otherwise derived from plants. Herbal products have been used for centuries
throughout the world to treat a variety of diseases and physical conditions.
In recent years, health consciousness and the increasing popularity of "all
natural" products have contributed to a growth in public interest in herbal
therapies.
The worldwide market for natural dietary supplements is substantial.
According to NUTRITION BUSINESS JOURNAL, in 1996 approximately 28 billion was
spent in the United States for non-prescription, plant-derived dietary
supplements, with sales, according to the BOSTON GLOBE, having increased over
20% annually in the last few years. In addition, according to THE WALL STREET
JOURNAL EUROPE, approximately $18 billion was spent in Europe for
prescription and over-the-counter ("OTC") multi-molecule, plant-derived
products.
The Company has implemented a commercialization strategy for its
nutritional products. The first element of this strategy entails the
development of consistent proprietary dietary supplement products. In the
United States, dietary supplements are considered food products under the
Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 ("DSHEA") and, as such,
are not regulated as drugs by the United States Food and Drug Administration
(the "FDA") and do not require FDA approval prior to commercialization.
General
The Products
AsthmaCalmT - AsthmaCalm is a natural dietary supplement designed to aid
in the relief of asthma and pulmonary congestion associated with difficult
breathing.
Blueberry/Grape Seed Complex - is one of the most potent natural
antioxidants.
Liver p.s.T - Liver p.s. is a comprehensive formulation to support liver
health, stimulate bile flow and promote detoxification functions.
Migrasafe-NT - is a natural migraine preventive.
OsteoDense PlusT - OsteoDense Plus is formulated to help increase bone
density.
Snore ReliefT - Desert Health's Snore formula is a unique combination
of all natural herbs and enzymes that gently work together to prevent
snoring. The product is 100$ natural, easy to take caplets with no reported
side effects or allergies. This product is available to our international
customers.
Allergy ReliefT - Desert Health Products, Inc.'s, Allergy formula
differs from over-the-counter or prescription medications as it is a 100%
natural formulation derived from only the highest quality botanicals. To
date, we have no reports of side effects, intolerance or allergic reactions.
Supplements for Women - Essential Support FemAid Systems products focus
on female nutrition and hormone health. This line of nutritional products
helps women balance their natural hormonal fluctuations from normal menstrual
cycles through menopause. Each of the four support programs is individually
formulated to provide the right combination of nutrients for one of four
distinct hormonal phases: (Phase 1) Normal Menstruation; (Phase 2) Pre-
menstrual syndrome or PMS; (Phase 3) Perimenopause; and (Phase 4) Menopause.
Additional products contain plant, herb and amino acid combinations show to
offer relief from fatigue (Vitality Support), inadequate sleep (Sleep
Support), and stress (Calm Support)
Ayurvedic - We also have a line of 19 unique formulated Ayurvedic herbal
products.
Enhanced Performance IIr According to current studies, 20 to 30 million
men suffer from impotence. Studies have shown that more than 75% of all men
who experience diminished sexual performance can return to peak levels
quickly and easily without medical treatments, surgery or devices. Many men
over 40 today have low levels of testosterone, and testosterone deficit is
the primary hormonal cause of male impotence. If you increase your
testosterone level you also increase your libido for sex, and that is what
this product does. Enhanced Performance II contains many different herbs
which release free testosterone in the body for both men and women. Contains
among other things Avena Sativa, Saw Palmetto, Ginkgo Biloba, Sarsaparilla,
Damiana, L-Arginine, Nettles, Quebracho, Boron, and Zinc.
Glucosamine Complex - The Arthritis Pain Reliever Glucosamine sulfate is
an amino sugar necessary for the construction of connective tissue.
Glucosamine sulfate actually helps to rebuild the damaged cartilage in the
joint. Unfortunately, people in various injured or pathogenic states often
have difficulty manufacturing enough amino sugars. A young athlete under
connective tissue stress or an older osteoarthritis patient will both have
higher turnover rates of amino sugars. Thus, they may not be producing enough
amino sugars to replace those which are lost. For these types of situations,
supplementation with glucosamines could be the ideal way to compensate for
lowered Glucosamine levels. Glucosamine sulfate has even been compared to the
powerful pain reliever ibuprofen. Ibuprofen offered faster pain relief,
Glucosamine sulfate showed greater overall pain reduction.
Shark Cartilage Sharks rarely, if ever, get cancer. It is the large
amount of cartilage that gives sharks their immunity to cancer. Current
research and published scientific papers now show that Shark Cartilage will
inhibit the formation of the new blood capillary network needed to feed a
growing tumor. Without a capillary network to feed a tumor and remove its
wasted products, a tumor in metastasis will not grow. Without new and
replacement capillaries, tumors will slowly shrink in size. Scientists
published findings that an extract of Shark Cartilage contains a protein
substance that strongly inhibits the development of a new blood network. This
inhibitor is a large protein molecule found most abundantly in Shark
Cartilage. Most people who have well formed blood networks will not need new
vascularization unless a blood vessel-dependent malady such as a tumor begins
to develop. Deny the network, and you will probably stop the tumor. Pregnant
women and people who have recently experienced a heart attack should
obviously not take Shark Cartilage.
NaturaLeanTM Would you like to have a product that helps you lose weight
and also lower your blood cholesterol? We have it. Research has shown that
reducing fat intake is essential for building health and longevity. Excess
dietary fat is the primary cause of obesity, heart disease, high blood
pressure, diabetes, arteriosclerosis and other diseases. This unique weight-
loss product helps reduce the amount of fat your body absorbs from the food
you eat. This natural supplement binds with fat in the digestive system and
prevents it from passing into the bloodstream. Instead, the fat is eliminated
by normal body functions. It does not interfere with the absorption of the
valuable oils, vitamins and minerals your body needs. NaturaLean also
contains cholesterol lowering agents.
Lyco/MenTM Prostate cancer is the second leading cancer killer of men.
Approximately one out of nine men will develop prostate cancer during their
lifetimes. Prostate cancer symptoms include an enlarged prostate caused by
cancerous cells. Desert Health is proud to introduce a supplement designed
with a synergistic blend of nutrients that support male prostate health based
on current scientific knowledge. Desert Health Saw Palmetto Lyco/Men is great
news for men over the age of 40. Starting at this age, the prostate may not
show any pathological change or it may undergo progressive enlargement.
Nature provides us with extraordinary nutrients for optimum prostate health.
We make it our business to keep our male consumers healthy with our
dynamically formulated Saw Palmetto Lyco/Men.
NiteLean PlusTM Lose Weight While You Sleep Obesity is clearly
associated with high blood pressure, elevated levels of cholesterol, adult
diabetes, increased risk of cancer of the colon, rectum and prostate in men,
and cancer of the gallbladder, the bile passages, breasts, cervix, uterus and
ovaries in women. Now it is time to consider NiteLean Plus, a new and
exciting weight loss program that is designed to enable you to lose weight
while you sleep. This new and exciting product is a tested and proven safe
weight loss program, with all natural ingredients that have been shown to be
effective in stimulating the body to burn up excess calories by causing the
body to increase the production of growth hormones that allow your system to
dispose of extra calories.
Brain BoostTM Your brain is a computer. Probably the most hard-working
organ in your body, it controls everything you do. And because it complains
little, and it demands no maintenance, we take it for granted. Unlike any
other organ in our body, we expect it to come with a lifetime warranty. But
does it? It remembers that the capital of Hungary is Budapest, not Bucharest,
but it forgets where you left the remote control. And, whatever you may
think, we need to take care of it. We look after our eyes, we moisturize our
skin, and we spend a lot of money showing our teeth to the dentist. Isn't it
time we pay more attention to this piece of hardware we call the BRAIN -and
its software we call the MIND? Your upgrade is called Brain Boost. A totally
new "formula" incorporates several natural phytochemicals such as the
patented Leci PS, Phosphatidyl Serine, Ginkgo Biloba and Coenzyme Q10 known
as the "spark of life" or the "energy enzyme".
Melatonin Time-Released Melatonin is a pharmaceutical grade supplement
designed to improve sleep. It is chemically identical to the Melatonin
produced by the human body during the hours of darkness. Because sleep is so
important to overall health, our Time-Released Melatonin may also help
strengthen your immune system, protect you from disease and reduce the
effects of aging. Desert Health's Time-Released Melatonin is unique because
of its time-release delivery system. It supplies Melatonin throughout the
night, the way your own body does. This powerful supplement is ideal for
everyone who seeks deeper and more nourishing sleep. It can also help you
counter the effects of jet lag or shift work. Thousands of clinical trials
have shown that Melatonin is completely safe and non-addictive. It produces
no "sleeping pill hangover" and is without any side effects.
Desert BoostTM -The Whole Desert In One Caplet For the first time in
history you can now get all the nutrients from Pollen, Propolis, Royal Jelly
and Aloe Vera in one caplet. Now you don't have to take all those pills to
increase your energy and immune system, rejuvenate your body and skin. Our
Desert Boost caplet will do all these things and much more.
Euro FiberTM Euro Fiber wafers help fill the need for today's diet.
These fiber wafers contain a complete profile of all four types of dietary
fiber, cellulose, pectin, hemicellulose and lignin. This fiber is a great
snack or dieting aid, giving a full, satisfying feeling.
Selenium PlusTM Selenium improves the function of white cells (T
lymphocytes) which are the body's chief defense against viruses and cancer.
Selenium supplements are not effective for preventing skin cancer but may
help protect against cancers of the lung, colon, rectum and prostate,
according to an article in The Journal of the American Medical Association.
Progesterone/Yam Cream Leading medical researchers have discovered that
wild yam may have important health benefits associated with misery and
discomfort of PMS, menopause and prevention of osteoporosis. A feeling of
euphoria, well being, happiness and energy may be experienced with this
moisturizing skin cream, which stimulates the body's own production and
regulation of Estrogen, Progesterone, Testosterone and other hormones.
Aloe Vera and Propolis Cream Aloe Vera has traditionally been used to
successfully treat burns and cuts. Desert Health utilizes only the highest
grade and quality of Aloe plants and employs the latest "cold process" method
in aloe processing technology to ensure quality products. unequaled in the
industry.

highly concentrated. You need only a few drops to give your hair a luxurious
lather. The Shampoo has no alcohol or water added to its base of Aloe Vera
and Royal Jelly. The Aloe and Pollen formula gives your hair a beautiful
shine, body and manageability.
Grape Seed Complex Grape Seed Complex is a powerful, free-radical
scavenger that can boost your body's defense system against numerous health
disorders. The Grape Seed Extract, Grape Skin Extract, Ester-C, Aloe Vera and
Wild Yam are synergistically blended and provide a wonderful anti-oxidant and
immune building supplement.
Super Minerals w/AloeTM Minerals are the basic building blocks of life.
Without them, health deteriorates, disease sets in and body functions fail.
Our minerals come in two different flavors, Kiwi and Lemon. Our minerals are
naturally chelated in their "organic" form and that allows them to be rapidly
assimilated for our health.
AlcotrolTM Many nations have tried to combat its epidemic alcohol
problem with everything from expensive therapies to prohibition. The Chinese
have long relied on a simple remedy, an extract of kudzu root. This herb is
extraordinarily effective and it takes away the cravings for alcohol, an
American study indicates. Desert Health's product has kudzu root.

has a healing effect and cleanses the blood. Good for smoker's cough, warts,
all types of infections, diabetes, ulcers, rheumatism, allergies, tumors and
liver disease. Especially good for pain connected with cancer. It is a
