A low price feels like a bargain until you calculate the price per serving. Cheap supplements often hide their true cost in small serving sizes, low doses, or short bottles that run out in two weeks. A bottle that costs half as much but lasts a third as long is not cheaper at all — it is more expensive, with extra packaging and extra orders on top.
Low prices can also signal corners cut elsewhere: undisclosed blends, untested batches, or fillers that bulk out a tablet without adding anything useful. None of this means every affordable product is poor. It means price alone is a weak signal, and the label tells you far more than the price tag does.
Compare products on dose per serving, transparency, and testing evidence rather than headline price. The Supplement Rating explains that comparison in its label-checking guide, which walks through dose disclosure, blend transparency, and testing claims. For a worked example, see a review of a botanical eye-health formula, and visit the homepage of The Supplement Rating for independent, evidence-led reviews.
