This launch follows market and product positioning analyses and successful pre-launch testing. The five products are:

    1. Cactus Ruddy Soft Capsules
    In addition to cactus, this product contains fortified vitamin compounds,
    calcium enrichment, and deer extracts.  This product improves vitality and

    Target market: middle-aged and elderly population.

    wolfberry fruits.  It boosts the immune systems, internal systems and
    organs.  Additionally, this product combats many male dysfunctions.

    3. Cactus Water Honey Pills
    These 6mm pills are made entirely of cacti, formulated through a process
    of dehydration and micro grinding.  This product mainly functions as an

    in children, improve digestion and metabolism in young and middle-aged
    people, promote radiant skin in women, and reduce blood alkaline levels in
    the elderly population, thus preventing cholesterol and high blood

Various cactus products have been shown to provide health benefits and have been used to treat a variety of health issues including, diabetes, adiposity, constipation, cholesterol, high blood pressure, low immunity, and various skin disorders.

China Kangtai owns nearly 400 acres of farmland and grows three species of Mexican cacti and some of the Company's own cloned species. The Company owns an R & D institute that has successfully produced 30 product patents, 15 of which have already been approved. It currently produces and sells four cactus-based product categories: nutraceuticals, which are health and wellness dietary supplements; beverages, including juice, teas, beer, wine, and spirits; packaged foods, such as noodles, biscuits and pickles; and raw and intermediate cactus materials. There are about 32 existing products under these four categories.

Besides adding new products to the above four categories, the Company is planning to launch two more product categories in 2007 and 2008. They are cactus-based personal care products and cactus-based animal feed and nutrition.
