No. Popular or “fad” diets are generally nutritionally unbalanced. They are designed to promote quick weight loss, not good health. Usually weight loss is short-lived. Such diets cannot supply adequate nutrition, so supplementary vitamins are advisable if the dieter insists on losing weight in this fashion.
