I actually started taking green tea extract a couple of weeks ago to help my sleep apnea, but in an indirect way:
Before I proceed with any further apnea surgery, I'm trying to lose a few pounds and get myself into shape. I'm hoping this will help the apnea a bit. If it doesn't, then hey I'll still be in great shape :-) The green tea connection is that there is some evidence that green tea catechins boost one's metabolism. Higher metabolism == easier to lose weight.
