Phase II - SUSTAIN
You’ve strengthened your gut, balanced your appetite, and achieved the results you set out for. Now it’s time to maintain them.
SUSTAIN is the second protocol in the Elcella journey, designed to help you preserve your results from Elcella AWAKEN. This protocol supports appetite-regulating hormones, steady energy, and long-term digestive wellbeing.
SUSTAIN continues to nurture the lower gut where fullness and hunger signals are controlled, helping your body stay in rhythm naturally.
Holiday Shipping Update: Due to UK bank holidays, orders placed between 24–28 December and 1 January may take longer to process. Ordering early is recommended to avoid delays.
Each jar contains 120 capsules — that’s 4 capsules per day.
Your gut is the control centre of appetite. It's where the signals that tell your brain "I'm hungry" and "I'm full" originate.
At Elcella, we focus on restoring that natural communication by delivering nutrients directly to the lower gut, the region that regulates appetite and digestive rhythm.
SUSTAIN is the ongoing part of the Elcella Method, designed to maintain the progress you’ve built with a gentle, long-term daily dose.
Disclaimer: Elcella is a food supplement, not a medicine and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Start with Elcella AWAKEN (8 capsules daily), then transition to Elcella SUSTAIN (4 capsules daily).
SUSTAIN is designed for those who are ready to maintain their progress and support long-term balance.
Take 2 capsules twice daily, ideally around 3 hours before lunch and 3 hours before dinner.
This timing supports your gut ahead of your main meals and helps keep your natural appetite rhythm steady.
You can adjust slightly based on your schedule, but keeping a regular routine is key. Consistency helps SUSTAIN do its job: maintaining the progress and balance you’ve already built.

How Elcella Works
Hunger begins in the gut. When fullness fades, the gut naturally communicates hunger and cravings to the brain.
Our patented capsule-design is formulated to reach the lower gut, where it releases key nutrients that support balance and wellbeing.
By nourishing your gut environment, Elcella supports normal appetite regulation and helps you feel more in tune with your body's natural cues.

Most weight loss products rely on stimulants or medical injections. Elcella takes a different approach; it works with your gut’s natural biology. Our research, published in leading medical journals, shows that specific nutrients can trigger specialised gut cells to release powerful “fullness hormones” (GLP-1 and PYY). These hormones send signals to the brain that help you feel satisfied, reduce cravings, and slow digestion so you stay fuller for longer.
In a 12-week trial, people using Elcella saw steady weight and waist circumference reductions while also reporting better appetite control and fewer cravings. By activating the body’s own satiety pathways, Elcella supports lasting, natural weight management, without stimulants or injections.
Elcella contains three key ingredients: Coconut Oil, MCT Oil, and Linseed Oil (flaxseed).
While these are natural, everyday nutrients, our research showed that the highest population of L-cells, the special gut cells that release fullness hormones, are found in the lower gut. These cells are the key to appetite control, but in a normal diet, most nutrients are absorbed much earlier in digestion, for example, broken down in the stomach and absorbed in the small intestine, meaning they never reach the lower gut in useful amounts.
Elcella’s capsule is designed to carry its ingredients past the stomach and small intestine so they are released right where L-cells live. This targeted delivery makes it possible to trigger a stronger, natural release of satiety hormones, something you can’t achieve just by eating more of the same foods.
The recommended dose is 4 capsules, twice a day (8 total). We suggest taking them about 3 hours before your two biggest meals - usually lunch and dinner - to give your gut time to activate its natural fullness signals.
That said, you’re in control. Some people prefer to start with fewer capsules - for example, 2 or 3 - especially if they’re more focused on gentle gut health benefits rather than weight management. The formulation is designed to be flexible, so you can adjust the dose to suit your lifestyle and goals.
Elcella is for adults who want to improve their gut health and feel more in control of hunger, cravings, and portion sizes. By targeting the body’s natural “fullness signals”, Elcella helps support healthier eating habits and weight management.
Elcella is not suitable for anyone under 18, and it’s designed for general wellbeing rather than medical treatment.
Yes! Elcella is 100% vegan, plant-based and free from synthetic additives. It’s designed to work with your body using only natural ingredients - we like to think of it as nature’s medicine. All of our ingredients are ethically sourced; our manufacturers are 100% carbon neutral, all of our packaging is 100% recyclable.
There are no ingredients within Elcella which will harm mum or baby, however we do not recommend that mothers restrict their eating during pregnancy or whilst breastfeeding. It's important to meet the increased nutritional requirements of pregnant and breastfeeding women through a healthy diet. Always consult your healthcare professional.
If you’ve had significant sections of your gut removed — such as in a hemicolectomy or other resections — this can affect how the capsules dissolve and where they release their ingredients. Our capsules are designed to work with the natural structure of the gut, so when key sections are missing, they may not function as intended. It’s not the inflammation itself that poses a problem, but rather the physical changes to the digestive tract and the time at which the capsules release the ingredients.If you're unsure whether Elcella is suitable for you, please get in touch with our team. We’re always happy to offer personalised guidance.

Everyone’s body responds a little differently, but most people start to notice subtle changes — like feeling fuller sooner, fewer cravings, or less ‘food noise’ — after about 4–6 weeks. The most consistent and noticeable results tend to appear around 12 weeks, once the gut has had time to adapt and strengthen its signalling to the brain.
Elcella isn’t a quick fix — just like any supplement, medicine, or lifestyle change, real, lasting change takes time. The key is staying consistent so your gut can fully reset and keep those fullness signals working naturally.
