Abstract: Hölder's inequality states that $\left \Vert x\right \Vert _{p}\left \Vert y\right \Vert _{q}-\left \langle x,y\right \rangle \ge 0$ for any $(x,y)\in \mathcal{L}^{p}(\Omega )\times \mathcal{L}^{q}(\Omega )$ with $1/p+1/q=1$. In the same situation we prove the following stronger chains of inequalities, where $z=y|y|^{q-2}$:

\begin{displaymath}\left \Vert x\right \Vert _{p}\left \Vert y \right \Vert _{q}-\left \langle x,y\right \rangle \ge (1/p)\big [\big (\left \Vert x \right \Vert _{p}+\left \Vert z\right \Vert _{p}\big )^{p} -\left \Vert x+z\right \Vert _{p}^{p}\big ]\ge 0 \quad\text{if }p\in (1,2], \end{displaymath}

\begin{displaymath}0\le \left \Vert x\right \Vert _{p}\left \Vert y\right \Vert _{q}-\left \langle x,y\right \rangle \le (1/p)\big [\big (\left \Vert x \right \Vert _{p}+\left \Vert z\right \Vert _{p}\big )^{p} -\left \Vert x+z\right \Vert _{p}^{p}\big ] \quad \text{if }p\ge 2.\end{displaymath}

A similar result holds for complex valued functions with Re$(\left \langle x,y\right \rangle )$ substituting for $\left \langle x,y\right \rangle $. We obtain these inequalities from some stronger (though slightly more involved) ones.
