Where Joint Science Comes Together

This targeted combination delivers noticeable improvements in comfort and movement within days, while supporting lasting structural strength over time.

To reinforce skeletal health, Vitamins D3 and K2 (as MK-7) work together to optimize calcium utilization—helping direct calcium into bones where it belongs. This synergistic action supports increased bone mineral density (BMD) and overall bone strength.

The formula is completed with BioPerine®, a patented black pepper extract that enhances nutrient absorption, ensuring your body fully utilizes every ingredient for maximum benefit.

Every component in Move Essentials is grounded in science and refined through Nordic formulation principles. This isn’t about masking discomfort—it’s about restoring the body’s natural rhythm of strength, flexibility, and movement.

How Move Essentials Supports Mobility

Our clinically supported formula works where it matters most:

  • Supports joint flexibility by nourishing cartilage and connective tissue
  • Reduces inflammation naturally, promoting smooth, pain-free movement
  • Builds bone strength and bone mineral density (BMD) for long-term mobility and resilience

What’s Inside — And Why It Matters

Tamasteen® (Tamarind, Turmeric, Mangosteen)

Tamasteen® is a proprietary, food-based blend of three powerful anti-inflammatory botanicals—tamarind seed, turmeric root (curcumin), and mangosteen fruit—each with a long history of use in Ayurvedic medicine. Together, they work synergistically to reduce inflammation, protect cartilage, and improve joint flexibility and mobility.

What makes Tamasteen unique is its multi-pathway approach to joint health:

  • Tamarind seed extract supports long-term joint comfort by modulating the 5-LOX inflammatory pathway, helping address chronic inflammation
  • Turmeric (curcumin) delivers faster relief by inhibiting the COX-2 pathway, supporting short-term comfort and reduced stiffness
  • Mangosteen fruit extract provides potent antioxidant protection, helping neutralize free radicals that contribute to joint degradation

This complementary, layered approach allows Tamasteen to deliver both rapid symptom relief and lasting joint protection.

Clinical Studies & Scientific Evidence on Tamasteen®

Tamasteen® has been validated in three randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials, demonstrating both fast-acting and long-term improvements in joint comfort and function. Notably, benefits were observed in healthy adults as well as in individuals experiencing moderate to severe joint discomfort.

Across these studies, Tamasteen® produced statistically significant improvements across all 10 measured markers of joint health, consistently outperforming placebo.

Biomarker Findings Confirmed:

In addition to clinical outcomes, biomarker analysis demonstrated that Tamasteen®:

  • Significantly reduced pro-inflammatory markers, including TNF-α, IL-6, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP)
  • Reduced cartilage breakdown in the knee, as indicated by improvements in uCTX-II and MMP-3 biomarkers

AprèsFlex® (Boswellia serrata)

A patented Boswellia serrata extract clinically shown to improve joint comfort, mobility, and range of motion. It helps reduce inflammation at its root, supports cartilage regeneration, and increases joint space for smoother movement. Benefits build over time with consistent use.

Key Takeaways from Clinical Studies

Four well-controlled clinical trials showed that ApresFlex significantly:

  • Reduced joint pain [1-4]
  • Reduced joint stiffness [1-4]
  • Improves physical function [1-4]
  • And all within five days compared to placebo, making it the fastest-acting, clinically effective ingredient in the joint category.

The studies also showed longer-term effect, including:

  • Increasing exercise performance [4]
  • Increasing cartilage thickness [4]
  • Increasing joint space (i.e., the space between the femur and tibia that makes up the knee joint; larger the joint space reflects cartilage thickness, which positively associated with healthier joints) [4]
  • Decreasing inflammation [4]
  • Decreasing cartilage breakdown [4]

Boron

A naturally occurring trace mineral essential for bone strength, joint health, and mobility. It helps reduce inflammatory biomarkers and supports natural calcium metabolism — a nutrient often missing in modern diets.

Low dietary Boron intake has been associated with an increased risk of compromised joint health conditions and vice versa. [1,2] More specifically, areas of the world where intakes are less than 1mg/day, have higher incidences of arthritis; yet in areas where typical boron intakes range from 3-10mg/day, the incidence of arthritis is less than 10%.

The Mediterranean Diet is arguably the healthiest diet being associated with low disease prevalence and longevity and clearly one of the most well-researched.

Interestingly, the Mediterranean region has the richest boron deposits in the world with water boron content reaching 8mg/l in Tuscany and 13mg/l in Cyprus.  Compared to regulations in the US and Europe at 1mg/l.  One research group estimates the Mediterranean diet delivers more than 13mg boron daily.[3] Dr Rex Newnham, one of the earliest boron researchers, has said that “over 250,000 people have used boron, and it corrects between 80 and 90% of all arthritis. No negative side effects have been noted, but there are some useful side-effects, such as would be noticed if boron were the limiting factor in a person’s well-being. Cardiopathies have been corrected … and balance has been corrected.” [2]

Vitamins D3 and K2 as MK-7

Vitamin K2 (MK-7)

The most bioavailable form of Vitamin K, working alongside Vitamin D3 to direct calcium where it belongs — into your bones, not your arteries. It promotes stronger bone mineral density, joint protection, and helps prevent cartilage calcification.

Vitamin D3

The essential sunshine vitamin that enhances calcium absorption and supports bone formation, muscle strength, and immune health. It also helps regulate inflammation, mood, and focus — essential for active living.

Vitamin D3 has been clinically studied for decades and has now become common practice in traditional medicine. 

Observational studies have shown that populations who consume more Vitamin K2 as MK-7 have stronger bones[1,2] and better heart health.[3,4] But Vitamin K2 as MK-7 was truly recognized for its importance in supporting bone and heart health after two randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled intervention trials with healthy postmenopausal women were published. Healthy postmenopausal women took either 180mcg of K2 as MK-7 daily for 3 years or a placebo, and bone and heart measurements were taken, demonstrating:

• Significantly improved circulation was shown by reversing 12 years of arterial aging, while those ingesting the placebo had arteries that continued to age.[5]

• Significantly decreased bone loss in postmenopausal women was seen compared to those women ingesting a placebo.[6]

Yet there is also research showing that D3 and K2 work together, including a recent meta-analysis that focused on bone quality, which concluded that the combination of vitamin K and D can significantly increase total bone mineral density. [7]

* Post-menopausal women were prominent in this study as they lose more bone mineral density (BMD) during menopause than at any other time. The results and indicated benefits of the study are, however, relevant for everyone with joints and bones.

BioPerine® (Black Pepper Extract)

A patented extract that enhances nutrient absorption by improving bioavailability. It ensures your body absorbs the full benefits of turmeric, Boswellia, and other active ingredients — making Move Essentials even more effective.

BioPerine's primary function is enhancing nutrient absorption. It stimulates digestive enzymes, improves nutrient breakdown, and increases uptake in the small intestine - crucial for fat-soluble vitamins and antioxidants to be fully utilized. BioPerine is commonly added to supplements containing compounds like curcumin and iron, which can be challenging for the body to absorb on their own. Its inclusion significantly boosts the bioavailability of these nutrients, ensuring more effective absorption and use by the body.
