Along with all the misinformation about diets there are websites and nutritionists that profit by research by taking statements and conclusions out of context for there own gain; publicity or monetarily.

Published research conducted using mice and other animals has not always been a good indicator of how a food or substance will affect humans. Artificial sweeteners is one example.
