vital.................../ minerals
I would change your sentence a little bit around, if I may.
Vegetables fulfill vital nutritional needs such has that of minerals (or mineral salts, depending on the country and the type of document)
As to "complementaire" : I would need the context for it could be "suplementary" or " self-balancing".

Tank you, of course, there would not be any "s" if you put it as mineral salts, I agree and did not put any either.
