An adventurous motto from an adventurous cowgirl. Saga Stevin, the founder of ibody science™ is passionate about new frontiers; from the horses she's wild about to the people she wants to help. In fact, it was through her devotion for horses that she started this company. With a deep understanding of the sensitive skin issues horses have, she put her inquisitive spirit to work and started experimenting.

Incorporating holistic treatments from her own organic lifestyle, Stevin concocted a rare blend of plant oils she believed would help her horse's skin problems. She tried it and did indeed see dramatic results. It wasn't long before her friends and colleagues were asking for it.

Bistro Blends of Napa Valley

About Bistro Blends

The company was started by a waiter that wanted more out of life. He came upon his first recipe while giving it to his tables as a very zesty bread-dipper. His customers wanted to buy it, but it was not available for sale, so, he took business cards with the dream of one day reselling that handmade recipe back to them. Almost ten years later, he had done just that. Since those days back in San Francisco at Scala's Bistro, John Spenger has taken that one recipe and introduced it to the culinary world and they haven't been the same since.
