How Appetite Works

Appetite isn’t driven by willpower alone. It’s regulated by signals between the gut and the brain that influence hunger, fullness, and eating behaviour. When this signalling is disrupted, your appetite becomes harder to manage.

1

Built By Gut Neuroscientists

Elcella was developed by two leading scientists specialising in the gut–brain axis, the communication system involved in hunger, satiety, and eating behaviour.

2

Targeted Nutrient Delivery

Elcella’s patented, pH-sensitive capsule delivers nutrients to the colon, where specialised L-cells are involved in the natural release of key gut hormones.

Working With Your Appetite Signals

By focusing on where key appetite-related processes naturally occur, Elcella supports a long-term approach to appetite regulation and craving control.

The Elcella Effect

What You Might Notice (And How the Journey Can Continue)

Your Journey Progress
1–4

Weeks 1–4

  • Subtle changes in appetite awareness
  • Feeling satisfied earlier, without feeling restricted
  • A calmer relationship with food

This phase is often about noticing & learning how hunger and fullness feel again, even if changes are quiet at first.

5–12

Weeks 5–12

  • More consistent appetite patterns
  • Reduced food noise and cravings
  • Easier, more natural eating decisions

For many people, this is when appetite regulation starts to feel more predictable and less effortful, less reactive, and easier to trust.

12+

Beyond 12 Weeks

  • Appetite cues feel more familiar and reliable
  • Eating decisions feel increasingly intuitive
  • Some people find they need less support over time

As regulation improves, many customers are able to reduce their dose, using Elcella as a lighter-touch support rather than a fixed daily intervention. This also means the cost of the programme decreases over time, reflecting the reduced amount needed.

Real People. Long-Term Weight Control.

The Scientists Behind Elcella

World-leading researchers in gut–brain biology and appetite signalling.

Elcella was developed from over a decade of academic research into how nutrients interact with the digestive system at a molecular level.

Meet the Scientists

Dr. Madusha Peiris, PhD

Founder & CEO

A world-leading expert in gut health with a PhD in Neuroscience

“Our bodies have a natural way of managing hunger, but for many people, this process isn’t working as it should. Our research has found a way to gently nudge it back on track using the right nutrients in the right place. Elcella helps you feel in control of your eating, in a way that works with your body – not against it."

Dr. Rubina Aktar, PhD

Co-Founder & COO

A gut physiology specialist with a PhD in Neurogastroenterology.

The gut is more than just digestion - it’s a highly intelligent network that communicates directly with the brain, influencing appetite, mood, and overall wellbeing. Our research at Elcella has uncovered how specific nutrients can support these gut-brain pathways, helping the body naturally regulate hunger and feel balanced, without forcing it to work against itself."
