      NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

                                   (UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1--BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         GLOBAL HEALTH SCIENCES, INC. is a holding company which conducts all of
its operations through subsidiaries, principally D&F Industries, Omni-Pak
Industries and Affiliates, and American Ingredients, Inc. Pursuant to the
indenture governing its obligations under the $225 million 11% Senior Notes due
2008 (the Notes). These subsidiaries (the "Subsidiary Guarantors") have jointly
and severally guaranteed the Notes on a full and unconditional basis. Separate
financial statements related to the Subsidiary Guarantors are not included
herein, as the management of Global Health Sciences, Inc. has determined that
the separate financial statements of the Subsidiary Guarantors are not material
to investors. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.

         INTERIM PERIOD PRESENTATION--The accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
results for the interim periods ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31,
2000.

         NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS--In September 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No.
133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". This
statement will be effective for the Company January 1, 2001. The company has not
yet analyzed the impact of adopting the statement as amended.

         COMPREHENSIVE INCOME--There are no adjustments between net income and
comprehensive income for the periods presented. In December 1999 , the
Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB No.
101"), REVENUE RECOGNITION IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. SAB No. 101 summarizes the
SEC's views in applying generally accepted accounting principles to revenue
recognition in financial statements. The company is in compliance with this
pronouncement.

NOTE 5--DEBT

         CREDIT FACILITY--The Company maintains a bank line of credit ( the
"Facility') which is secured by all of its assets and matures on January 31,
2001. As of June 30, 2000, the outstanding balance under the Facility was $38
million and no further advances were available under the Facility.

As of June 30, 2000, the Company did not comply with several financial covenants
under the Facility. As a result, the lenders under the Facility have notified
the Company of a default and are entitled to accelerate maturity of the bank
debt. The lenders have informally agreed to forbear from doing so as long as the
Company makes monthly principal reductions of $1 million. A $1 million principal
reduction was made in July 2000.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

    The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements included elsewhere herein.

    The Company is one of the world's leading developers and custom
manufacturers of dietary and nutritional supplements. The Company develops
specialty products for branded distribution companies, branded retailers,
television marketing companies and network marketing organizations who then
distribute their products throughout the world. The Company (and its
subsidiaries) subchapter S corporations, and all federal and state income taxes
(other than a minimum state income tax of 1.5%) are paid directly by its
shareholder. The Company has historically distributed, as a quarterly dividend
to its shareholder, amounts sufficient for the shareholder to pay the required
income taxes. No distribution was made during the three month period ended June
30, 2000 and no additional shareholder payments are anticipated during the
current year.

    A significant portion of the Company's sales and EBITDA has been
attributable to sales to Herbalife, the Company's largest customer. Sales to
Herbalife increased from approximately $70.5 million in fiscal year 1995,
representing approximately 83% of the Company's sales in that year, to
approximately $141.6 million in fiscal year 1999, representing approximately 57%
of the Company's sales in that year. Sales to Herbalife were $20.4 million in
the quarter ended June 30, 2000 (41.5% of total sales) compared to $32.6 million
(56.6% of total sales) in the quarter ended June 30, 1999. The comparative
decline in sales to Herbalife in the second quarter of 2000 adversely affected
EBITDA for the quarter. Other periodic declines in sales to Herbalife due to
decreases in Herbalife's sales and/or inventory levels or other factors have had
adverse effects on Company sales and EBITDA in the past and could have adverse
effects in the future. The Company has a supply agreement with Herbalife which
extends through January 31, 2001. There is no assurance that the agreement will
be renewed or that, if renewed, it will provide the Company with benefits
equivalent to those available under the existing agreement. The Company's sales
to Herbalife for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were approximately $62.4
million or 51.8% of net sales; as compared to $63.8 million or 58.2% of net
sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999.

----------
EBITDA is defined as income before interest income (expense), income taxes and
depreciation and amortization. Management believes that EBITDA and EBITDA margin
are measures commonly used by analysts and investors to determine a company's
ability to service and incur debt. Accordingly, this information has been
presented to permit a more complete analysis. However, EBITDA as reported may
not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. EBITDA
margin is computed by dividing EBITDA by net sales. EBITDA should not be
considered a substitute for net income or cash flow data prepared in accordance
with general accepted accounting principles or as a measure of profitability or
liquidity.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999

    SALES.  In the second quarter of 2000, sales decreased by $8.4 million or
14.6%, to $49.2 million as compared to $57.6 million in the second quarter of
1999. The decrease results primarily from a decrease in sales to Herbalife, the
Company's largest customer, due to a buildup of inventories at Herbalife in
prior periods Sales to Herbalife decreased by $12.2 million to $20.4 million in
the second quarter of 2000 as compared to $32.6 million in the second quarter of
1999. The Herbalife decrease was offset by a $3.8 million increase sales to
other customers.

    COST OF SALES AND GROSS PROFIT.  Cost of sales decreased by $2.4 million or
5.9%, to $38.2 million in the second quarter of 2000, as compared to $40.6
million in the second quarter of 1999. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales
increased to 77.6% in the second quarter of 2000 as compared to 70.5% in the
second quarter of 1999, thereby decreasing the gross margin in the second
quarter of 2000 to 22.4% from 29.5% in the second quarter of 1999. The reduction
in gross margin was primarily due to relatively higher raw material costs and
higher costs related to expanded manufacturing capacity.

    SELLING, GENERAL, AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.  Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $1.6 million to $7.6 million in the second
quarter of 2000, as compared to $6.0 million in the second quarter of 1999. As a
percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to
15.4% in the second quarter of 2000, as compared to 10.4% in the second quarter
of 1999. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was due to
several factors: bad debt reserves were increased $0.6 million due to a change
in certain customers' credit condition; commission expense increased $0.4
million due to changes in sales mix; and the Company had increased general
overhead and facility capacity expenses to support the high levels of sales
experienced during the first quarter of the year. Overhead expenses that were
developed to support the higher sales were not reduced until mid-June as the
lower sales levels persisted.

    INTEREST EXPENSE.  Net interest expense increased by $1.0 million to $8.3
million in the second quarter of 2000, as compared to $7.3 million in the second
quarter of 1999. The 13.7% increase in interest expense results primarily from
non-compliance with certain covenants under its bank line of credit. As a result
of the non-compliance the lender has assessed penalties and increased the
effective annual interest rate from a LIBOR-based rate (approximating 7% at
June 30, 1999) to a fixed rate of approximately 13.5% at June 30, 2000.

    NET LOSS.  The Company's net loss increased by $8.4 million to a net loss of
$12.9 million in the second quarter of 2000, as compared to a $4.5 million net
loss in the second quarter of 1999. The increased loss resulted primarily from
the effect of lower sales volume, lower gross margins and the other reasons
described above.

SIX ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999

    SALES.  In the first six months of 2000, sales increased by $10.7 million or
9.8%, to $120.4 million as compared to $109.7 million in the first six months of
1999. Sales to Herbalife decreased by $1.4 million to $62.4 million in the first
six months of 2000 as compared to $63.8 million in the first six months of 1999.
Sales to other customers in the first six months of 2000 increased by $12.1
million as compared to the first six months of 1999.

    COST OF SALES AND GROSS PROFIT.  Cost of sales increased by $14.7 million or
19.0%, to $92.2 million in the first six months of 2000, as compared to $77.5
million in the first six months of 1999. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales
increased to 76.6% in the first six months of 2000 as compared to 70.6% in the
first six months of 1999, thereby decreasing the gross margin in the first six
months of 2000 to 23.4% from 29.4% in

the first six months of 1999. The reduction in gross margin was primarily due to
relatively higher raw material costs and higher costs related to expanded
manufacturing capacity.

    SELLING, GENERAL, AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.  Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $2.9 million to $14.0 million in the first
six months of 2000, as compared to $11.1 million in the first six months of
1999. As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses
increased to 11.6% in the first six months of 2000, as compared to 10.1% in the
first six months of 1999. The increased expenses were primarily related to costs
required to support the increase in sales, the expansion of sales and
manufacturing capacity, increased bad debt provisions of $0.7 million, and
increased commission expense due to changes in sales mix of $0.4 million.

    INTEREST EXPENSE.  Net interest expense increased by $1.4 million to $15.9
million in the first six months of 2000, as compared to $14.5 million in the
first six months of 2000. The 9.7% increase in interest expense results
primarily from non-compliance with certain covenants under the Company's bank
line of credit. As a result of the non-compliance the lenders' have assessed
penalties and increased the effective annual interest rate from a LIBOR-based
rate (approximating 7% at June 30, 1999) to a fixed rate of approximately 13.5%
at June 30, 2000.

    NET LOSS.  The Company's net loss increased by $8.2 million to a net loss of
$18.0 million in the first six months of 2000, as compared to a $9.8 million net
loss in the first six months of 1999. The increased loss resulted primarily from
the effect of lower gross margins, higher administrative costs and for the
reasons described above.

      LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    The Company's primary cash needs are for working capital , reduction of bank
debt and interest payments. The Company's' primary source for meeting these
requirements is through cash flow from operating activities. The Company has
taken steps to reduce costs. Such steps are expected to improve its ability to
meet its cash needs

    Cash and cash equivalents were $1.5 million at June 30, 2000 compared to
$6.4 million at December 31, 1999. The Company is required to make semi annual
interest payments on the Notes of $12.4 million on May 1 and November 1. The
ability of the Company to meet the November 1 interest payment depends on either
raising equity or replacing the lending Facility, neither of which can be
assured.

    Cash provided by operating activities for the six month period ended June
30, 2000 was $0.3 million compared to $8.0 million provided by operations for
the six months ended June 30, 1999. The $0.3 million primarily results from
depreciation and amortization of $18.1 million, decreases in accounts receivable
of $6.0 million and inventory of $6.0 million, a net loss of $18.0 million and
decreases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $13.6 million.

    Capital expenditures of $4.3 million for the period ended June 30, 2000 were
primarily for additional manufacturing equipment.

    The Company has elected S Corporation status for federal and state tax
purpose, and other than the 1.5% state tax, income tax is paid by its
shareholder.

    The Company maintains a bank line of credit ( the "Facility') which is
secured by all of its assets and matures on January 31, 2001. As of June 30,
2000, the outstanding balance under the Facility was $38 million and no further
advances were available under the Facility


                                      -13-

<PAGE>

    As of June 30, 2000, the Company did not comply with several financial
covenants under the Facility. As a result, the lenders under the Facility
have notified the Company of a default and are entitled to accelerate the
maturity of the bank debt. The lenders have informally agreed to forbear from
doing so as long as the Company makes monthly principal reductions of
$1 million. A $1 million principal reduction was made in July 2000.

    The Company has engaged ING Barings as its financial advisor and Weil
Gotshal & Manges as its legal counsel in connection with a possible
restructuring of the Facility and the Notes.

    The Company is actively engaged in discussions with other lenders to replace
or refinance the Facility, at or prior to its fixed maturity or an earlier
accelerated maturity. The terms of any new or replacement facility may not
provide the Company with additional liquidity and may be less advantageous
than the terms of the existing Facility. Failure to refinance or replace the
Facility, cure the existing covenant violations or obtain other sources of
liquidity could have material adverse consequences for the Company and could
result in a default under the Notes at any time. In any event, the Company
does not anticipate that any replacement facility it obtains will provide it
with significant additional liquidity; accordingly, for the foreseeable
future, the Company expects to depend primarily on cash flow from operating
activities to meet its liquidity needs. Under these circumstances, the
Company does not plan or expect to make additional acquisitions. Failure to
obtain additional funding for acquisitions could limit the Company's ability
to expand its marketing and production capabilities as necessary to grow its
business and compete effectively.
