Hey all ,

Don't ask me why, I must ahve been bored but I analysed the price per dose of 14 different ZMA products from 8 different distributors.

There was a need to do this as the various products were all different strengths so you needed to take from one to four of them each night, confusing the buyer.

Well I took how many pills were required to achieve B6 10.5 mg Magnesium 450mg zinc 30mg, divided this by the number of pills in each pot the resultant then being used to define preice per dose by dividing it by the total cost per pot.

The results were astounding really, for the same dosage you could be paying from £0.33 to £2.39!!

Yeh some of the products added Vit c or E and this pushed up the price but overall the cheapest product by manufacturer and distributer were.....

USN ZMA from affordablesupplements.co.uk at 0.33p per dose (4 tablets).
ZMA x270 from myprotein.co.uk was also 0.33p per dose (3 capsules)

Worst by far was:

Acetabolan by Muscletech at £2.39 per dose but this had other stuff in it, from sncdirect.co.uk

WOrst pure ZMA product was:

ZMA HP by EAS at £1.44 per dose from sncdirect.co.uk

Has anyone else done a product analysis like this?
