  I reckon a pill of that description could definitely be developed. However, it’s best to get your nutrients from actual food rather than pills as food contains fibre, thousands of phytochemicals, and lots of other beneficial substances that can’t be provided for in a pill. Personally, I’d hate the thought of obtaining all my essential nutrients from a pill, as you’d miss out on all the flavours and enjoyment of physically eating a meal!!
