Dose against the studied amount

What one labelled serving delivers, placed against the range on each ingredient’s evidence page. Where a label gives no figure, there is nothing to place, and that is the finding.

Whey protein blendEvidence A

Where muscle protein synthesis maxes out: 20–25 g a dose

  • Kinetica Whey Protein23 g protein per 30 g servingIn range
  • NOW Omega-3 Molecularly DistilledNot in the formula

Omega-3 (EPA and DHA)Evidence B

No single studied range in label units, so amounts are shown but not placed.

  • Kinetica Whey ProteinNot in the formula
  • NOW Omega-3 Molecularly Distilled360 mg per 2-softgel serving (720 mg a day at the label’s full dose); 240 mg per 2-softgel serving (480 mg a day at the label’s full dose); 2,000 mg per 2-softgel serving

What it actually costs

Price divided by labelled servings, from a dated listing. A serving is whatever the label calls one, which is why the studied-dose row matters more than the headline figure.

  • Kinetica Whey Protein£1.18 a serving · £89.99 for 76 servings at Kinetica Sports, checked 22 Sept 2026
  • NOW Omega-3 Molecularly Distilled$0.24 a serving · $23.99 for 100 servings at Amazon, checked 23 Sept 2026

These prices are in different currencies from different markets, so they are shown side by side but not ranked against each other.

Label checks

What each label discloses, and what it leaves out. Read from the reviews, not from the marketing.

How this comparison is built

  • Scores are the ones already published in each review. Nothing is re-scored for the comparison, and a product leads a criterion only when it outscores the rest.
  • Doses are read from the label rows in each review and placed against the studied range on the matching ingredient page. A figure that is not printed is never estimated.
  • Costs use a dated retailer price divided by labelled servings. Prices in different currencies are never ranked against each other.
  • Only products in the same category, or ones a review names as an alternative, can be compared. Commission never changes what appears here.
