Multivitamin Cost Per Day

Learn how to see the real daily cost of any multivitamin, and stay for the secret tip at the end, and avoid hidden costs.

Real Cost vs Shelf Price

A cheap multivitamin may cost more per day than a pricey one, because shelf price isn’t the daily cost. This guide shows a simple method you can use in any country or currency to compare local and imported packs.

Calculate Cost Per Serving

First, note the total you paid, including tax. Add any shipping or duties for online or imported packs. Find the servings per container on the label. Divide the total cost by the number of servings, that’s your cost per serving.

Read The Label Right

Look at the serving size first, the nutrition facts are per serving, not per package. Count how many servings the package actually contains. Then check the % Daily Value column: 20% or higher means a high amount, 5% or lower means a low amount.

Gummies, Bulk & Servings

Yes, shape doesn’t matter, check the servings number on each pack, whether it’s gummies, tablets, or a bulk bottle. A bulk pack is cheaper per serving only if you finish it before the printed date, which applies to unopened packs.

High nutrient threshold

20% or more on the label means a high amount of that nutrient.

Low nutrient threshold

5% or less indicates a low amount of that nutrient.

The one key rule

The one rule to remember: calculate cost per serving, include any shipping or duties, and make sure you’ll use the pack before its date. That gives the true daily cost.
