<b>Natural Health Trends Announces Second Quarter 2009 Results and Early Redemption of Convertible Debentures</b>
<p>DALLAS, TX -- (Marketwire - August    10, 2009) -  Natural Health Trends Corp. (NASDAQ: BHIP) today
announced its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.  The
company reported sales of $8.5 million and an operating loss of $1.4
million for the quarter.
</p>
<p>
Chris Sharng, president of Natural Health Trends, said, "Despite a
difficult operating environment in the second quarter, we continue to make
progress toward the goal of cash flow breaking even.  Our cash used in
operations was a negative $92,000, almost breaking even, compared to
$486,000 cash used in the first quarter, or $1.5 million in the first half
of 2008.  The other important milestone is that, as of today, we have
entered into an early redemption arrangement with the holders of the
convertible debentures that were to mature in October 2009 and have paid
off the remaining balance.  We are debt free once again.
</p>
<p>
"On the other hand, in the second quarter, orders were not as robust as we
anticipated.  The orders taken, which are roughly measured as revenue
adjusted by the change in deferred revenue, were slightly greater in the
second quarter, about $8.5 million, than the $8.2 million in the first
quarter.  During the quarter, we had to reckon with the unexpected
development that one of our members' groups in Greater China went through
an internal reorganization.  Certain sub-groups were re-aligned to work
separately.  This change required us to make adjustments to our marketing
plans and effectively defer some marketing activities into the late third
quarter or fourth quarter. The disruptive effect this has had on our
marketing programs lingers on into the 3rd quarter, a traditionally slower
season."
</p>
<p>
The company plans to host a conference call at 11:30 a.m. EDT, August 12,
2009.  Those who wish to participate may call telephone number (866)
672-2663, or (973) 582-2772 for international callers, 15 minutes before
