EXHIBIT 23.6

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To The Shareholders and Board of Directors
Nature' Sunshine Korea, Ltd.


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Nature's Sunshine Korea, Ltd.
as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the related statements of income,
statements of shareholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended,
expressed in Korean Won. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion, as
independent accountants, on these financial statements as to whether they have
been prepared in conformity with financial accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States, based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Nature's Sunshine Korea, ltd.
as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the result of its operation, the change in
its retained earnings and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity
with financial accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
