                                HealthRite, Inc.
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   General

On July 17, 1995, the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation was amended to
change its name from Vitamin Specialties Corp. to HealthRite, Inc.

On August 14, 1996, the Registrant launched its Nautilus Nutritionals product
line.

The information contained herein with respect to the nine month period ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995 has not been audited but was prepared in conformity
with the accounting principles and policies described in the company's Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1995. Included are the
adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial information for the three and nine month periods
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. The results of interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.

2.   Bank Loans

On May 17, 1995, the Registrant and a subsidiary, Jason Pharmaceuticals,
Inc.,(Jason) entered into a loan agreement collateralized by the assets of
Jason and the Company with borrowing availability based on percentages of
accounts receivable and inventory. At September 30, 1996, total borrowing
availability was $1,074,000; total borrowed was $1,022,000 leaving $52,000
available for use.

In April 1996, Montana Naturals Int'l Inc. (Montana Naturals), a subsidiary of
the Company borrowed $250,000 pursuant to another working capital loan
agreement from a bank, guaranteed by the Registrant. In September 1996, this
subsidiary applied for an additional $250,000 loan for working capital.

3.   Sale of Convertible Preferred Stock

                                HealthRite, Inc.
                MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



Results of Operations


In March 1996, the Registrant instituted a Consolidation Plan. The Plan
provided for the employment of Mr. Bradley T. MacDonald as President and Chief
Operating Officer and the consolidation of management and administrative
functions of the Company's three units: the Vitamin Specialties Division, which
conducts retailing and direct mail activities, and the Company's wholly-owned
subsidiaries, Montana Naturals Int'l Inc. and Jason Pharmaceuticals, Inc. which
conduct brand manufacturing, contract manufacturing and distribution
activities.


Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995


Revenues increased $439,000 or 11% over the prior period. The increase was
attributable primarily to increased Montana Naturals branded sales.

Cost of sales, including warehousing, distribution, and occupancy decreased by
$70,000 or 3%, and as a percentage of revenues decreased by 8% from 62% in 1995
to 54% in 1996. The decrease in cost of sales resulted in lower cost of
production and increasing in selling prices.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $174,000 or 11% but
as a percentage of revenues, remained at 39% between 1995 and 1996. The dollar
increase was attributable to the increased sales effort in Montana Naturals
branded sales.

Interest expense was $60,000 in 1996 as compared to $66,000 in 1995. The
difference was attributable to a decrease in outstanding borrowings.

Other Income was $4,000 in 1996 as compared to Other Expenses of $227,000 in
1995. The difference is primarily the result of relocation expenses of $227,000
incurred in 1995.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 and September 30, 1995


During the first nine months of 1996, non-retail activities earned $892,000.
The retail and catalog operations lost $632,000. However, during this quarter,
the retail losses were $83,000 compared to the first and second quarter losses
of $ 391,000 and $158,000 respectively.

Revenues increased $507,000 or 4% over the prior period. The increase was
attributable primarily to Montana Naturals branded sales.

Cost of sales, including warehousing, distribution, and occupancy increased by
$208,000 or 3%, and as a percentage of revenues remained the same at 56%.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were about the same.

Interest expense, (net) was $179,000 in 1996 as compared to $89,000 in 1995.
The difference was attributable to an increase in borrowings and a decrease in
surplus funds invested (see Liquidity and Capital Resources below).

Other income was $38,000 in 1996 as compared to other expense of $209,000 in
1995. The difference is primarily the result of relocation expenses of $227,000
incurred in 1995.

The provision for income taxes in 1996 relates to state income taxes payable
and deferred federal income taxes.


Seasonality


The Registrant believes that its business is not subject to significant
seasonality.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


On January 3, 1995, the Registrant acquired all of the outstanding common stock
of Jason and a note payable to former stockholders of $450,000 for $2,998,000,
which consisted of $2,660,000 cash and 67,500 shares of the Company's common
stock valued at $388,000. The acquired net assets of Jason included $1,175,000
of cash.

The Registrant had working capital of $ 3,255,000 on September 30, 1996
compared with $2,600,000 at December 31, 1995.

The Company and Jason entered into an agreement with a financial institution on
May 17, 1995 providing for loans totaling $2,000,000 of which $1,800,000 is a
working capital loan and $200,000 is a term loan. Loan advances available from
the working capital loan are based on percentages of accounts receivable and
inventory. As of September 30, 1996, $1,074,000 was available of which $52,000
was unused.

In April 1996, Montana Naturals obtained a $250,000 line of credit from its
existing lender to fund working capital needs. In September 1996, this
subsidiary applied for an additional $250,000 to be used for working capital.

In August 1996, the Company sold 432,500 shares of 8% Convertible Preferred
Stock Due 2001 which generated gross proceeds of $865,000. The shares are
convertible into the Company's common stock on the basis of one share of common
for each share of convertible preferred stock. The proceeds will be used to
develop the Nautilus brand products and for working capital.

The Registrant believes that its working capital and anticipated cash flow from
operations, together with funds available from its credit arrangements and its
recent equity financing, will be sufficient to meet the Registrant's
anticipated working capital requirements for at least twelve months from
September 30, 1996.


Inflation


To date, inflation has not had a material effect on the Company's business
