In reality I'd forget them, they're probably a bit pointless. You'd be better off actually drinking green tea.

Green Tea Extract does have some scientifically proven effect on weight loss, as the concentrated tea extract is slightly different in composition to that of drinking a straight cup of green tea, and the Catechin content is somewhat higher in the green tea extract (which is the compound which is deemed to help weight-loss by aiding mobilisation of fat from cells for use as energy as well as increasing circulation by limiting vasoconstriction and helping with body cleansing of built up toxins from fat burning). However, the effect is minimal and will only enhance the effects of a programme of good nutrition and exercise, it's not a miracle pill that enables weight-loss by itself. It's also claimed to raise overall metabolism slightly, so can aid burning those extra calories off, but again this is up for debate and the evidence for it is somewhat cloudy at best.

Here is an article on the effects of green tea extract for you:
