I would not be surprised if we find that in 200 years each vitamin has a unique profile based on it's source and putting supplements in something fake does not make it the same as real.

It probably won't matter, however. Biology adapts.

We already know there are synergistic effects with certain nutrients. But what we're just as likely to find is that there are more beneficial combinations of nutrients than are found in nature. There's a strong possibility that (eventually) we'll be able to create better foods instead of worse ones.
