Don't quote me on this, but I think I read somewhere that your body doesn't absorb a very high percentage of the vitamins from pills. It is more effective coming from food. Whole foods are better for this than processed and refined foods. I think it even said that all the vitamin supplementation added to foods don't really provide much of a benefit either. This is all part of the "whole food" movement. Now that I think about it, it might have been from the book "In Defense of Food." Another book, "The China Study" also mentions something along these lines.
From their website, "Juice Plus+® is not a substitute for eating fruits and vegetables. " Funny but they promote it as a substitute. "But because most people simply can't, don't, or won't (eat fruits and vegetables), Juice Plus+ helps fill that gap....These nutrients work together in combination to provide you more of the nutritional benefits of eating healthful whole foods.
