How we rank
We rank by cost-per-dose — price ÷ servings, normalized to the daily dose— so bottle sizes and strengths compare fairly. Prices are scraped at publication and re-checked when the catalog refreshes (see the “Prices checked” stamp above). There is no paid placement and no kickback for ordering. Full methodology · Editorial standards.
That cost-per-dose number is the one most retailers and review sites leave out — they’ll show a sticker price and a serving size, but not what a day actually costs. We compute it for every product so you can compare like for like.
When cheapest ≠ best value
Our cheapest l-arginine per dose is an oxide form — cheap and concentrated, but a low-absorption form, so your body takes up relatively little of it. Chelated forms (e.g. glycinate, citrate) are absorbed far better, so compare cost per absorbed unit, not sticker price alone. A bigger bottle isn’t automatically cheaper per dose either — this list already ranks by cost per dose, so a larger count only wins if it truly costs less per serving. Compare L-Arginine forms.
Our data on this: the big bottle saves a median ~86% per serving · the gummy tax (~2× more) · the form premium · the price spread.
Full ranking by cost per dose
Cost-per-serving normalizes price across bottle sizes — a 60-count and a 365-count compare fairly.
