DEREGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SHARES

On January 24, 2007, Natural Alternatives International, Inc. (“NAI”) filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) a registration statement on Form S-8 (file no. 333-140185) (“Registration Statement”) to register an additional 100,000 shares of NAI’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share, issuable under NAI’s 1999 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (“1999 Omnibus Plan”) and an additional 25,000 shares of NAI’s common stock, $0.01 par value per share, issuable under NAI’s 1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“1999 ESPP”). The 1999 Omnibus Plan and the 1999 ESPP have both been terminated.

In accordance with the undertakings made by NAI in the Registration Statement to remove by means of a post-effective amendment any shares of common stock that remained unsold at the termination of the offering, NAI hereby files this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to its Registration Statement solely for the purpose of deregistering (i) all 100,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 1999 Omnibus Plan and previously registered pursuant to the Registration Statement that remained unissued upon the termination of the 1999 Omnibus Plan; and (ii) all 25,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 1999 ESPP and previously registered pursuant to the Registration Statement that remained unissued upon the termination of the 1999 ESPP.
