This year Centrum introduced VitaMints, a minty, chewable, easy-to-take multivitamin to help you stay healthy during cold and flu season.

Note: I received product sample for review purpose. Any personal views expressed are always 100% my own.

I received a box of VitaMints and tried them out. While I know I should take more vitamins, some are so big and not easy to take. Not to mention taste chalky.

But these VitaMints are easy since they're chewable and taste like a breathe mint. Cool and refreshing. A much better vitamin taking experience, so I'm more likely to take them.

But honestly this is such a busy time for everyone. We can barely remember to take our keys or turn off the lights at home, much less taking vitamins.

So to help you (and me) find ways to fit taking Centrum VitaMints in our busy schedule, I interviewed Bahar Takhtehchian, beauty and lifestyle expert.

How to fit Centrum VitaMints into a busy lifestyle?

Bahar Takhtehchian: Busy adults (and especially parents) have hectic schedules and the last thing they need is to add another activity to their daily "to-do" lists.

Centrum VitaMints are ideal for people with jam-packed schedules because they can be consumed any time, anywhere. They don't even need to be taken with food or water. I find that it's especially easy to take them after your morning coffee, on your way to work, or right before bed.

Why is it necessary to take a multivitamin?

Bahar Takhtehchian: Most of us lead a fast-paced, on-the-go lifestyles which means it's often difficult to get all of the necessary nutrients we need from food alone.

I take a complete multivitamin because it's an effective way to help fill nutritional gaps in my diet and it helps support my overall energy, immunity, and metabolism.

Share any overall tips for how to have a healthier lifestyle

Bahar Takhtehchian: Adding Centrum VitaMints to your daily routine is one step you can take towards leading a healthier lifestyle, but exercise and diet are also crucial.

As the weather gets colder and holiday season approaches, many of us will find it harder and harder to fit exercise into our day. The key is find ways to sneak in some activity every single day. Even if you only have 10 minutes to spare, head outdoors and take a brisk walk.

This is a wonderful way to burn calories, clear your mind, and get your blood pumping. Plus, you can bring your kids along as well and turn it into a family affair.

Exercise goes hand in hand with a balanced diet. It's essential to follow a high fiber/low calorie meal plan that's packed with fresh veggies and fruits, whole grains, and lean protein.

When it comes to snacking during the day and beating that 3pm slump, I always suggest eating something that will make you feel full and energized. Some of my go-to snacks include a handful or raw almonds, carrots and hummus, or greek yogurt with fresh berries.

Such great tips and advice right? Now make sure to pick up some Centrum® VitaMints since this multivitamin includes key nutrients such as Vitamins D, B12 and E to support energy, immunity and metabolism.
