We only kept vitamin C products sold in Malaysia that have a MAL registration on NPRA's QUEST3+ portal and a price we could see at a pharmacy. Products with their own JAKIM certificate rank above ones without. Then we ordered by price per tablet, how much each one suits a need (sugar-free, sensitive stomach, kids) and how long the halal certificate runs. Nine products passed these checks. Our method
