† Some links are affiliate links — they do not change the ranking
Some store links are affiliate links: if you buy through them, this site may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. It changes nothing in the ranking: the score is computed beforehand and without reading those links, and products with no affiliate programme appear exactly the same. How it is calculated.

10 products in this table
What each tub contains
Median dose per serving
Price per kilo does not tell you how much active ingredient is inside the kilo. This table does: for each ingredient, the median dose per serving at each store and how many products reach the dose backed by studies (the same reference this site scores with).
| Ingredient | HSN | All other stores |
|---|---|---|
| MelatoninEvidence-backed dose: from 1 mg per serving | 2 mg10 of 10 contain it · 9 reach the dose | 2 mg54 of 106 contain it · 52 reach the dose |
The dose is per serving, not per tub. A big tub with a short dose forces you to take two scoops to get the same, and then it lasts half as long: that is why the price per dose in the next section does not match the price per kilo.
Why one is cheaper than the other
Factor by factor, with both stores’ data
All other stores costs 174 % more per capsule than HSN (€0.170/capsule against €0.062/capsule, medians of both catalogues). That difference does not come out of nowhere. These are the data that explain it, with each store’s figure alongside: capsules per pack (median), different brands in the catalogue, products with declared additives.
| Factor | HSN | All other stores |
|---|---|---|
| Cost of one effective dosePrice per capsule and price per dose point to the same store, so the dose does not erase the label difference: HSN is cheaper both ways. | €0.066 | €0.166 |
| Capsules per pack (median)HSN sells bigger packs, and a big pack spreads the same tub, the same label and the same shipping over more capsules. Part of the price gap per capsule is this and not a discount: comparing one store’s small pack with the other’s large one inflates the gap. | 120 caps. | 90 caps. |
| Different brands in the catalogueHSN mostly sells one brand, HSN Essential Series: 80 % of its catalogue in this category. All other stores spreads its own across 58 brands. A store selling its own brand skips the manufacturer’s margin and can cut the price without touching the formula; a reseller pays that margin and passes it on, and in exchange carries brands the other does not sell. | 3 (80 % HSN Essential Series) | 58 (33 % Desconocida) |
| Products with declared additivesWhat the pages of both declare: colourings, artificial sweeteners, anti-caking agents. An additive is not fraud, but it takes up grams that are not active ingredient and is cheaper than the active ingredient: where more additive is declared, the price per capsule drops without the product being better. | 20 % | 5 % |
| Median rating at the storeBased on 5,125 reviews at HSN and 1,013 at All other stores. These are the store’s own ratings, which is judge and party: they help spot a product that arrives damaged or tastes awful, not decide which formula is better. | 4.8/5 | 4.5/5 |
None of these factors is an accusation. They are medians of what each store publishes on its pages on the day prices were collected: where a page does not declare a figure, that store does not count in that row instead of counting as a zero. A specific product can contradict its store’s median, and that is what the full table is for. How all of this is calculated.
This is a filter, not another ranking. The score that sorts this table is exactly the same as in the full melatonin comparison: the only thing removed here is the products that do not meet the criterion above. How it is calculated.
