Sagitta has been with me my whole life. In 1911, my great-grandfather started the company from Munich's oldest pharmacy, which had been in our family for generations.
“I remember well visiting my grandparents who ran a pharmacy. To her parrot, who always said asthma (Sagitta cough syrup) when someone coughed.”
Today we no longer sell cough syrup or medicines. That's why Sagitta is all about healthy habits, our Healthy Habits.
I have had my own personal experience of how important these are in everyday life. Because I have often tried to change my life myself. But that wasn't so easy. As a new mom to twins, I quickly realized that I had to get better, real quick. Better at cooking, better at time management and in many other areas... and also somehow better to me. But that didn't always work out, and at some point my health fell by the wayside.
“My morning routine, for example, had to be quick, but still healthy. I asked myself what exactly is 'healthy'?”
During this time, I often looked for tips and tricks that were easy and quick to implement.
I kept coming across the term “Healthy Habits”, which was already very popular in England, my second home. I found the concept brilliant. Building small, healthy habits into my life instead of major changes that are difficult to sustain. That's how I started incorporating Healthy Habits into my life and to this day I'm amazed at how well it's working.
"Life doesn't get easier, you just get better"
At Sagitta, we have now designed our products specifically for these healthy habits. What do you really need and how can you make it healthier?
With our body soaps you save the body lotion and thus many unhealthy surfactants. Our deodorant is so healthy that it is theoretically edible. Our probiotics are quickly sprinkled over breakfast and keep the whole family fit. So we can keep all our normal habits, just a tad healthier. And that's exactly what I mean by Healthy Habits.
"We want to prevent it. We want to be super eco. That is also our private philosophy. Anything I wouldn't give to my kids doesn't make it into the shop. Sustainability is the top priority. And if possible, everything should be regional from Bavaria.”
For me, Sagitta and Healthy Habits go very well together. And so we research, pore over studies and immerse ourselves in the world of health. We have now developed the first probiotic deodorant with living"good"bacteria and are also using the little helpers in other Sagitta products.
“Our goal is to make the world a little healthier with Healthy Habits. We share the best products and the most important health information with you through our shop, our community platform and our network.”
My vision of Healthy Habits isn't just about our products, it goes much deeper. We are currently creating bundles with concentrated information on all aspects of health, and this will fulfill my dream of passing on well-founded knowledge as simply and precisely as possible.
I look forward to many questions and to conducting further research with you in order to make our lives a little healthier every day. Nice that you are part of our journey. Let's see where she goes!
