SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 22, 1998--Scottsdale Scientific Inc.
(Symbol: STDS), through their wholly owned subsidiary, NutriCology Inc., announces the
distribution of the natural hormone oral spray, Androstenedione.

Androstenedione is the direct natural precursor to testosterone and is believed when
administered orally can spike testosterone levels, enhance energy, endurance, mental
alertness,
muscle growth, and heighten sexual health in both men and women.

With the addition of Androstenedione to Scottsdale Scientific's extensive line of natural
hormone
food supplements, we expect sales from the company's natural hormone line to increase
existing
sales by seven figures annually by the year 2000.

Androstenedione oral spray is a downstream metabolite of naturally occurring hormones
and
when taken as an oral supplement increases blood levels of testosterone in both sexes.

Marianne Sum, president of Scottsdale Scientific states: ''For those whose testosterone
levels
may need an energy boost, Androstenedione spray may be taken in the morning, evening or
during the day as desired. In this manner, testosterone increase will tend to mimic the
natural
rhythms of the body.

''When orally administering the Androstenedione spray, within 15 minutes serum
testosterone
levels start rising and stay elevated in most people for approximately three hours. Blood
testosterone levels reach a peak usually one and a half hours after administration.''

The company believes there is little risk of negative feedback suppression of the
hypothalamus,
pituitary, or testicles since elevated testosterone levels swiftly return to normal baseline
levels.
Androstenedione is sold as a dietary supplement and according to DHSEA,
Androstenedione
spray is considered to be fully natural.
