Your presumption is false. Vitamin pills are absolutely a replacement for the vitamin deficiencies that come with an unbalanced diet.

The problem is that 1) certain vitamins may be harder to absorb in pill form vs from foods and 2) an unbalanced diet has more problems than vitamin deficiencies. For example, weight gain/loss, dyslipidemia, and a whole host of diet dependent diseases.
