No one is being lied to. Unless of course you consider the fact that everone is being lied to all the time, constantly.

Being subjected to consumer health advice is like sitting in the middle of a tennis court. You are served a lie from the media who have political leaning in one direction whose political donors represent every kind of industry that includes the largest conglomerates that trade. Then you are served another lie from their opponents through the debunking of studies, which is irrelevant in many ways, is taken out of context and become distorted through media op-eds, and again the debunking of the debunked studies bounces back.

Could we not all agree that the notion of attempting to forcibly throw bunk science down each other's throats is not very convincing nor helpful. Perhaps then we could get back to actually achnowledging the limitations of overly-specialized scientific analysis and instead either make our own minds up with our own objective realities, subjective needs and commonsense.
