She says, in reply to proposals to tax sugar that "Singling out sugar may seem a simple, quick fix solution but risks ignoring many other factors that can contribute to lifestyle diseases.” According to the organisation "Sugar consumption in the UK has declined whilst obesity and diabetes rates have increased".

(glycogen-synthase-D) phosphatase (glycogen-synthase-D) phosphatase In enzymology, a [glycogen-synthase-D] phosphatase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are glycogen-synthase D and HO, whereas its two products are glycogen-synthase I and phosphate. This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on phosphoric monoester bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is [UDP-glucose:glycogen 4-alpha-D-glucosyltransferase-D] phosphohydrolase. Other names in common use include uridine diphosphoglucose-glycogen glucosyltransferase phosphatase, UDP-glycogen glucosyltransferase phosphatase, UDPglucose-glycogen glucosyltransferase phosphatase, glycogen glucosyltransferase phosphatase, glycogen synthetase phosphatase, glycogen synthase phosphatase, glycogen synthase D phosphatase, Mg dependent glycogen synthase phosphatase, and phosphatase type
