Business Editors/Medical Writers

HAYWARD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)---May 3, 2002

Allergy Research Group, Inc. (ALRG), announced today that its board of directors has authorized a stock repurchase program for between 1,000,000 and 2,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock over the next two years. Based on current market prices, the aggregate purchase price for the shares would be approximately $120,000 to $300,000. The program is effective immediately.

"Based on current market prices, we believe that our stock is undervalued and we have an opportunity to buy back our shares at attractive levels," said Dr. Stephen A. Levine, the Company's chairman and chief executive officer, who, together with the Company's secretary, Susan Levine, has also indicated an intention to repurchase up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock. "This action reflects our confidence in Allergy Research Group's long-term growth and will help to offset dilution from the issuance of stock to employees under our stock incentive plan."

Under the program, the Company may repurchase shares in open market transactions in block trades or otherwise. Management may commence or suspend purchases at any time or from time-to-time based on market and business conditions and without prior notice. This announcement does not constitute a request or offer for tender of shares to the Company.

According to Levine, the Company, which reported a net income of $326,557 for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2001 and is expected to report a net income for the first quarter of 2002 as well, is in a good position to implement the stock repurchase program. The program is expected to minimize the dilutive effect of stock awards to employees as well as act as a means to return cash directly to stockholders in an effective and timely manner.
