This answer shows that YES, a diet with Vitamin C is metabolically superior to one without, and NO, eating less is not sufficient if you are dropping all Vitamin C sources." I think it addresses the core question, and in doing that exposes the question as being far too broad. | |

Most vitamins are considered essential to some degree and therefore should be present in a balanced diet. Likewise a diet of chocolate cake with a multi-vitamin isnt going to result in more weight loss than a calorie based diet lacking in a few vitamins would. | |
