8.1Good
1,000 mg of vitamin C with rose hips in a sustained-release tablet for about 6 cents a day; far more than most people need, but cheap and cleanly made.

Glucomannan 575 mg Veg Capsules
6.9Mixed
A cheap, single-ingredient konjac fiber (1,725 mg per serving) taken before meals for fullness. Honest and GMP-made, but the average weight effect in trials is small.
