If the problem was as simple as that, it wouldn't be a problem.
A do-everything multivitamin-and-mineral pill is pennies per day[0], so we could very easily just require them to be added — and in some cases we already have: UK cereals, back when I was there, often advertised "fortified with 7…" (or was it 8?) "…vitamins and minerals".
I got the impression it was a legal requirement they'd tried to pretend was a special feature.
