How we worked it out

Multivitamin

  • Servings: 84 ÷ 2 per serving = 42
  • In the pack: 42 × 1 serving = 42 servings
  • £20.25 ÷ 42 servings × 1 serving = 48.2p per serving
  • A week 48.2p × 7 = £3.38 · a month × 30 = £14.46 · a year × 365 = £175.98
  • Amount per serving: priced per serving — compare what each serving contains before choosing.

Calcium

  • Servings: 84 ÷ 2 per serving = 42
  • In the pack: 42 × 500 mg = 21 g
  • £20.25 ÷ 21 g × 500 mg = 48.2p per 500 mg calcium
  • A week 48.2p × 7 = £3.38 · a month × 30 = £14.46 · a year × 365 = £175.98
  • Amount per serving: stated on the label.

Folate

  • Servings: 84 ÷ 2 per serving = 42
  • In the pack: 42 × 400 µg = 16.8 mg
  • £20.25 ÷ 16.8 mg × 400 µg = 48.2p per 400 µg
  • A week 48.2p × 7 = £3.37 · a month × 30 = £14.46 · a year × 365 = £175.98
  • Amount per serving: stated on the label.

Iron

  • Servings: 84 ÷ 2 per serving = 42
  • In the pack: 42 × 17 mg = 714 mg
  • £20.25 ÷ 714 mg × 14 mg = 39.7p per 14 mg iron
  • A week 39.7p × 7 = £2.78 · a month × 30 = £11.91 · a year × 365 = £144.93
  • Amount per serving: stated on the label.

L-Arginine

  • Servings: 84 ÷ 2 per serving = 42
  • In the pack: 42 × 100 mg = 4.2 g
  • £20.25 ÷ 4.2 g × 3 g = £14.46 per 3 g
  • A week £14.46 × 7 = £101.25 · a month × 30 = £433.93 · a year × 365 = £5279.46
  • Amount per serving: stated on the label.

Magnesium

  • Servings: 84 ÷ 2 per serving = 42
  • In the pack: 42 × 150 mg = 6.3 g
  • £20.25 ÷ 6.3 g × 100 mg = 32.1p per 100 mg magnesium
  • A week 32.1p × 7 = £2.25 · a month × 30 = £9.64 · a year × 365 = £117.32
  • Amount per serving: stated on the label.

Vitamin C

  • Servings: 84 ÷ 2 per serving = 42
  • In the pack: 42 × 80 mg = 3.36 g

  • A week £6.03 × 7 = £42.19 · a month × 30 = £180.80 · a year × 365 = £2199.78
