constitutes

Most lay people and members of the medical and dental professions assume that the six or eight vitamins constitute practically all that are needed in an adequate nutrition.

It's a big claim to say that one vitamin could constitute an adequate diet. It is probably more usual to say that a certain vitamin constitutes the recommended daily intake

"recommended daily intake" "vitamins" http://tiny.cc/ri8tew

I should have read on where it says "cubriendo los requerimientos diarios", so the claim does make sense after all
