Nordic Origins

Norvia was founded in Scandinavia by Dr Lars Høie, inventor of the plant-based formulas, and an experienced team who all originate from Norway.

Dr Høie, graduated with an MD from University Aarhus, Denmark in 1983. He was driven to study medicine by his family history of cardiovascular disorders, and was also diagnosed with high cholesterol at a young age. It was thereby a natural decision to devote his personal and professional life to focus on prevention of cardiovascular diseases, and seeking nutritional solutions for health issues caused by diet and lifestyle.

A trusted science academic, Dr Høie has spent the last 30 years developing and researching natural products which could prevent lifestyle disorders, during which he spent 5 years studying Chinese medicine in Europe and in China, where he first learned about the effective health benefits of the soy bean.

Returning to Oslo, Dr Høie co-founded the Centre for Heart Medicine where he treated hundreds of patients using a natural plant-based formula he’d developed as a breakthrough from his extensive research. Patients achieved significant weight losses, while at the same time normalizing blood sugar and cholesterol levels, and significantly lowering other cardiovascular risk factors.
