<p></p>
<b>Natural Health Trends Corp. Announces First Quarter 2007 Results</b>
<p>DALLAS, TX -- 05/10/2007 --  Natural Health Trends Corp. (NASDAQ: BHIP) today
announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2007.
</p>
<p>
Sales in the first quarter of 2007 were $21.5 million, compared to $39.5
million and $27.7 million for the first quarter a year ago and the fourth
quarter of 2006, respectively.  The decline in sales was primarily due to
continued distractions and disruptions caused by management changes in the
last 18 months, a shareholders' demand for action involving some of the
Company's Chinese members, as well as the members' reaction to the
uncertain regulatory environment in China that is currently impacting the
Hong Kong-based business.  Hong Kong sales decreased $15.8 million, or 54%,
over the comparable period a year ago.
</p>
<p>
As of March 31, 2007, the Company had 82,000 active distributors, compared
to 121,000 and 96,000 active distributors at the end of the first quarter
of 2006 and at the end of 2006, respectively. The Company considers a
distributor "active" if they have placed at least one product order during
the preceding year.
</p>
<p>
For the first quarter of 2007, the Company incurred a net loss of $5.0
million, or $0.61 per fully diluted share, compared to a net loss of $1.1
million, or $0.15 per fully diluted share, a year ago in the comparable
quarter, and a net loss of $5.0 million, or $0.61 per fully diluted share,
in the prior quarter.
</p>
<p>
During the first quarter of 2007, the Company recognized the following
non-recurring items which negatively impacted earnings (in millions):
<pre>
Severance for two former executive officers        $(0.6)
Provision for inventory losses                      (0.3)
Distributor settlement                              (0.1)
Charge to relocate Mexico City office               (0.4)
Asset impairment and severance in Japan             (0.3)
                                                   ------
Pre-tax loss impact                                $(1.7)
                                                   ======
</pre>
As of March 31, 2007, the Company's cash and cash equivalents totaled $8.5
million, including $3.4 million in China that may not be freely
transferable to other countries because the Company's Chinese subsidiary is
subject to a business license capitalization requirement.  On May 4, 2007,
the Company consummated a private equity placement generating gross
proceeds of approximately $3.0 million, the net proceeds of which will be
used for working capital purposes.
</p>
<p>
Mr. Chris Sharng, the Company's President, said, "Sales were at a low point
in February due to the shareholders' demand for action and the Chinese New
Year holiday.  We are pleased to see that sales increased in March and the
upward trend continued into April.  We restructured our Japan and Mexico
subsidiaries to cut costs, resulting in write-downs.  Also a commission
enhancement program has been put into effect in North America, Japan,
Europe, Southeast Asia and Australia.  The rest of the markets will
implement the change by the end of the second quarter.  The enhancement
program is the first of its kind in the direct selling industry to remove
the weakside minimum threshold requirement allowing our independent
distributors to earn a commission check faster. The program is also
anticipated to lower distributor commissions as a percentage of revenue.
Last week, the Company also launched two new products called "Ge-Gen&#8482;
Fit Factor&#8482;" and "Ge-Gen&#8482; The Orange Pill&#8482;" through a brand new
global retail platform where independent distributors can customize their
product packages as they so desire.  The two products address the energy
and weight management categories and both contain a super fixated nitrogen
extracted through a proprietary process from Kudzu, an herb traditionally
used in Chinese medicine. Fit Factor&#8482; also includes Hoodia cactus to
serve as an appetite suppressant.  Furthermore, for the first time in this
Company's history, we are rolling out a world-wide recognition system to
highlight and promote the successes of our independent distributors.
Finally, we are still expecting to launch our People's Republic of China
(PRC) retail platform by the end of June, generating revenue in China.
Since we began pre-registration in the PRC market, we have signed up more
than 15,000 customers.  We are very excited about our progress."
</p>
