AMERICAN FORK, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 3, 2000

Shle Living, inc. d.b.a. Brain Garden (OTC BB: WLIV) today announced the results of its nationwide Pulse-a-Day "Weight-Loss Miracle Month."

Hundreds of Brain Garden customers and independent distributors across the country participated in this month-long program that encouraged participants to "eat Pulse(TM), drink water, and get some regular exercise."

Pulse(TM) is the company's nutrient-rich, "whole-food snack" product. Pulse(TM) is a proprietary formula made from 22 different whole grains, fruits, seeds and nuts - all chemical and preservative free. Pulse is designed to make eating healthy throughout the day convenient and delicious.

The winners, Jacquelyn Prator and John salmon will each be awarded a Caribbean Cruise for two and $1,000 in cash for wardrobe and spending money.

Prator, who operates a home-based business in Colorado, lost 40 lbs. during March as her waist shrunk 7 inches. Since last fall, she has lost 59 lbs. from snacking on Pulse(TM). "I feel wonderful!!" she explains. "I have tons of energy. My overall health is vastly improving." Prator notes that she has lost weight on other programs, but always felt hungry, unsatisfied and unhealthy--and she always put the weight back on. "Being able to eat all the Pulse you want and still lose weight is incredible to me," she adds. " I now find myself craving fruits and vegetables and other whole foods. That an awesome lifestyle change!"

Salmon, a 44 year old pastor from Florida, went from 199 lbs. to 182 lbs. in just 19 days during March, losing 4" in his waistline, while his chest, legs and arms actually increased in size. "My entire eating pattern has been changed forever," Salmon claims. "I cannot eat the way I used to. I now feel great, satisfied and full. My mental awareness continues to improve. Brain garden's whole-food products have made me whole, and for that I am forever grateful."

Brain Garden's whole foods approach to weight control is the ultimate in safe, natural, effective weight loss. Participants often begin with the "Daniel's 10-day Challenge" program, during which they eat only Pulse(TM) and water while experiencing a special behavior conditioning program.

"Brain Garden plans to capture a large share of the multi-billion dollar weight-loss market that has been dominated by companies promoting fad diets or magic pills or capsules." says Brain Garden President Ron Williams. "The weight-loss industry has been a total failure in terms of producing permanent weight loss. The truth is there are lots of ways to lose eight in the short term. But they are all unnatural and the fat always comes back, plus they can impose both short and long-term health risks. Our approach of whole foods, water and moderate exercise is the only one that will make you both trimmer and healthier over the long haul."

Tom promotes long-term, gradual weight loss and optimum health, Brain garden's "Pulse(TM)-a-day" program provides one serving of Pulse(TM) for each day of the month.

"Our mission is to get everyone to make a commitment to their health- to eat one serving of Pulse(TM) a day," says Brain Garden President Ron Williams, " In a era of fast food, empty calories and increasing rates of obesity and disease, Pulse(TM) takes us back to nature's table. People are seeing dramatic results in terms of improved health and weight loss by eating Pulse(TM) every day, and they are making a long-term commitment to their health and longevity."
