How we worked it out

Turmeric / curcumin

  • Servings: 60 ÷ 1 per serving = 60
  • In the pack: 60 × 475 mg = 28.5 g
  • £43.39 ÷ 28.5 g × 500 mg = 76.1p per 500 mg
  • A week 76.1p × 7 = £5.33 · a month × 30 = £22.84 · a year × 365 = £277.85
  • Amount per serving: active constituent content stated on the label (or its stated percentage of the extract).

Black pepper (piperine)

  • Servings: 60 ÷ 1 per serving = 60
  • In the pack: 60 × 5 mg = 300 mg
  • £43.39 ÷ 300 mg × 5 mg = 72.3p per 5 mg
  • A week 72.3p × 7 = £5.06 · a month × 30 = £21.70 · a year × 365 = £263.96
  • Amount per serving: extract weight stated on the label.
