How we worked it out

Electrolytes

  • Servings: 20 ÷ 1 per serving = 20
  • In the pack: 20 × 1 serving = 20 servings
  • £5.00 ÷ 20 servings × 1 serving = 25p per serving
  • A week 25p × 7 = £1.75 · a month × 30 = £7.50 · a year × 365 = £91.25
  • Amount per serving: priced per serving — compare what each serving contains before choosing.

Calcium

  • Servings: 20 ÷ 1 per serving = 20
  • In the pack: 20 × 15 mg = 300 mg
  • £5.00 ÷ 300 mg × 500 mg = £8.33 per 500 mg calcium
  • A week £8.33 × 7 = £58.33 · a month × 30 = £250.00 · a year × 365 = £3041.67
  • Amount per serving: stated on the label.

Magnesium

  • Servings: 20 ÷ 1 per serving = 20
  • In the pack: 20 × 25 mg = 500 mg
  • £5.00 ÷ 500 mg × 100 mg = £1.00 per 100 mg magnesium
  • A week £1.00 × 7 = £7.00 · a month × 30 = £30.00 · a year × 365 = £365.00
  • Amount per serving: stated on the label.

Potassium

  • Servings: 20 ÷ 1 per serving = 20
  • In the pack: 20 × 100 mg = 2 g
  • £5.00 ÷ 2 g × 200 mg = 50p per 200 mg potassium
  • A week 50p × 7 = £3.50 · a month × 30 = £15.00 · a year × 365 = £182.50
  • Amount per serving: stated on the label.

Vitamin C

  • Servings: 20 ÷ 1 per serving = 20
  • In the pack: 20 × 40 mg = 800 mg
  • £5.00 ÷ 800 mg × 1 g = £6.25 per 1 g
  • A week £6.25 × 7 = £43.75 · a month × 30 = £187.50 · a year × 365 = £2281.25
  • Amount per serving: stated on the label.
