"The best way to get vitamins is to eat better." -Every physician ever.

Unless you have your own organic garden this is a pipe dream.

A fruit or vegetable that have traveled thousand of miles before being delivered to you has almost no vitamins left in it and probably didn't have much to start with considering soil depletion.

I believe (emphasis on believe) that supplementation is necessary even if you "eat right".

This study is only about vitamin C and doesn't mention transportation. This is a bit light imo.
