Item 4.01 Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant
(a)(1) On February 24, 2005, Nutra Pharma Corp. ("the Registrant") changed
accountants from Eisner LLP to Stark Winter Schenkein & Co., LLP.
(i) On February 24, 2005, the Registrant decided to dismiss Eisner LLP as
its independent accountants.
(ii) Eisner LLP's report on the financial statements for the years ended
December 31, 2002 and 2003, and the period from February 1, 2000
(inception) to December 31, 2003, as contained in Forms 10-K and
10-K/A, which were filed on April 20, 2004 and May 7, 2004,
respectively, were not subject to an adverse or qualified opinion or a
disclaimer of opinion and were not modified as to uncertainty, audit
scope or accounting principles for the period from February 1, 2000
(inception) to December 31, 2003 or for either of the past two years,
except that Eisner LLP's report on the financial statements as of and
for the year ended December 31, 2003 contained explanatory language
that substantial doubt existed about the Registrant's ability to
continue as a going concern due to the Registrant's recurring net
losses and its working capital deficiency at December 31, 2003.
(iii)The decision to change accountants was approved by the Registrant's
Board of Directors; and
(iv) (A) During the period from our engagement of Eisner LLP on March 11,
2004 to the date we dismissed Eisner LLP on February 24, 2005, there
were no disagreements with Eisner LLP related to accounting principles
or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or
procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of
Eisner LLP, would have caused Eisner LLP to make reference to the
subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report.
