Rapid Nutrition to Launch New Oral Anti-Viral Therapy to combat Influenza &
Common Cold

Brisbane, Australia -Rapid Nutrition plc (SW: RAP, OTCQB: RPNRF) will launch
a new oral anti-viral treatment called Azurene that is designed to combat
influenza and the common cold in humans. A natural healthcare company
focused on sports nutrition, diet management and life sciences products with
extensive worldwide distribution. Rapid Nutrition is in discussions with the
Australian government and leading universities to conduct further testing;
independent testing at two laboratories has already confirmed the product's
strong antiviral activity and a provisional patent application has been
filed.

This anti-viral formula relates to the use of a combination of herbal
extracts to provide a broad spectrum of protection against, treatment of and
relief from acute respiratory viral infections, including, but not limited
to influenza, SARS, coronavirus and common cold in humans and animals.
Because the treatment is based on herbal concentrates, used for hundreds of
years as both food and medicine, no safety testing is required, allowing a
quicker delivery to the market.

"It is a rare opportunity to have the ability to combat influenza as well as
the common cold with a new anti-viral therapy, and we are thrilled to
introduce Azurene to a broader global market," said Rapid Nutrition CEO
Simon St. Ledger. "The team of experts who has spent several years of
intensive research developing this product expects it to be effective across
a range of viral diseases."

Azurene is the product of years of research based on in-vitro testing,
scholarly literature and continuing clinical trials ahead of product launch.
The anti-viral and anti-inflammatory formula is expected to be safe for use
among all ages, including children and seniors.
