EGCG is Claimed to "Boost" Metabolism, Can Anyone Direct to the Supportive Evidence for this Contention?

Does Anyone Have a Proposed Mechanism?
Answer:
ah, they say it claims to come from "green" tea, but green tea is also higher in caffeine (since it is not fermented), green tea's caffeine is probably causing the boost, but is it a boost to metabolism or "nerves" he he, but thyroid hormone pills can, but not advisable, because then suppresses the body's production of thyroid hormone T3 or T4, and once stop then really low hormone level, also would probably mess up thyroid, right?if they get out and move their butts to Richard Simmons "Sweating to the Oldies", that definitely raises Metabolism LOL

There is a good review of many EGCG studies:
