How we worked it out

Vitamin C

  • Servings: 250 ÷ 2 per serving = 125
  • In the pack: 125 × 1.61 g = 200.8 g
  • £45.85 ÷ 200.8 g × 1 g = 22.8p per 1 g
  • A week 22.8p × 7 = £1.60 · a month × 30 = £6.85 · a year × 365 = £83.36
  • Amount per serving: stated on the label.

Magnesium

  • Servings: 250 ÷ 2 per serving = 125
  • In the pack: 125 × 120 mg = 15 g
  • £45.85 ÷ 15 g × 100 mg = 30.6p per 100 mg magnesium
  • A week 30.6p × 7 = £2.14 · a month × 30 = £9.17 · a year × 365 = £111.57
  • Amount per serving: stated on the label.
