Aviva's staff of trained natural health advisors operate Aviva’s retail centre and website. We research and publish highly detailed product information, and offer products licensed by Health Canada, including professional practitioner lines of supplements not available at most big box and health food stores.
Health Canada Note: To be licensed in Canada, natural health products must be safe, effective, of high quality and carry detailed label information to help you make safe and informed choices.
We're proud to carry a wide range of carefully selected dietary supplements, health-related housewares, and healthy lifestyle products. Aviva's name comes from a Spanish translation for 'enliven'. Founded in 2001 by Nathan Zassman, a Nutritional Therapist, we operate a retail centre in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, and are proud to serve Canadian, American, and international customers through our website.

Message from Aviva President Robert Johnston
We wanted to create a space where wellness isn't just about products, but about community, education, and giving back. We're proud to now offer three brands under one roof, allowing us to help our customers with all aspects of their health, while supporting the charitable causes of Global Missionary Enterprises:
Aviva Natural Health Solutions: Winnipeg’s premier destination for those seeking a holistic approach to wellness, offering high-quality supplements and health resources. Aviva has served as Winnipeg’s natural health superstore for 25 years.
GME Clearance Center: A hub for savvy shoppers looking for exceptional value and quality inventory at clearance pricing, GME Clearance Centre is Winnipeg's newest charity store, featuring new, antique, surplus, and furniture items. All profits support the mission work of Global Missionary Enterprises.
GMissions Cafe: A takeout and sit-in coffee shop offering delicious snacks and carefully crafted coffee in a welcoming space, also representing the charity work of Global Missionary Enterprises.
GME is a Canadian registered charity founded in 1986 by Rob’s parents and currently supports mission work both locally and abroad.
Message from founder Nathan Zassman

Nathan founded Aviva in 2001 and sold the business in 2025. He maintains a limited advisory role with Aviva in retirement.
Aviva Natural Health Solutions is my personal concept of what a health and wellness company should be. With a broad and comprehensive product line, I feel that no other company offers the diversified and complete selection of health and wellness products found at Aviva.
Aviva's retail center is located in the St. James/Airport neighbourhood of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. On display you'll find a comprehensive selection of nutritional supplements, natural body care products, aromatherapy products, air purification systems, water purifiers, lighting solutions, foot health products, and much more.
The Aviva approach is to improve health and wellness by integrating proven health promoting technologies into a person's lifestyle. With certifications in nutritional therapy, I maintain a limited clinical practice, and have prepared educational material on a wide variety of health topics for my clients and for publication on avivahealth.com. Aviva also holds in-store seminars with guest speakers which are another great way to share information about specific topics, products, and healthy living.
I spend as much time as possible studying the latest published research to learn the most effective application of orthomolecular therapies, using vitamins, herbs, and foods for healing mind and body. Through continual research and study, my goal is to find the most advanced clinically-proven health and wellness products that can improve the health of my clients and Aviva's customers. I focus on products and solutions that can easily be integrated into one's lifestyle, so that health improvement can become so natural that no conscious effort is required.
