How safe it is to take green tea extract capsule from gnc or vitamin to accelerate weight loss? does it really work or does it cause any side effects

Side effects: Supplements are not regulated by fda. They can claim whatever they want, put things that really work and are really dangerous, and there is no regulation unless a whole bunch of people are really hurt by it.
