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 | Holland & Barrett | All other stores |
|---|---|---|
| Omega 3 EPA DHAEvidence-backed dose: from 250 mg per serving | 1.2 g5 of 7 contain it · 5 reach the dose | 1 g58 of 145 contain it · 56 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
Holland & Barrett costs 53 % more per capsule than All other stores (€0.341/capsule against €0.223/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: different brands in the catalogue.
| Factor | Holland & Barrett | 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: All other stores is cheaper both ways. | €0.333 | €0.154 |
| Different brands in the catalogueHolland & Barrett mostly sells one brand, Holland & Barrett: 71 % of its catalogue in this category. All other stores spreads its own across 64 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. | 2 (71 % Holland & Barrett) | 64 (19 % Desconocida) |
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 omega 3 comparison: the only thing removed here is the products that do not meet the criterion above. How it is calculated.
