Probably people don't "believe" in science.

You mean the same science that is constantly telling us, one year, that something is healthy, and three years later tells us it causes some deadly thing, and then four years later tells us that was all just a misunderstanding? The same science that tells us that cells were the smallest building block, then corrects itself saying its atoms, then correct itself and says its basis? The same science that was clueless about dark matter for years? Science has nothing to do with facts, it is just a neverending grind to the realization that we, as humans, never have, do not now, and never will fully understand the universe in our own capacity. I'm positive that there is a catch to this "super fruit" that "science" will no doubt reveal to us (only to contradict that revelation years later).

Honestly, it's like people act like science should always be trusted when, historically speaking, it is always disproving itself to the point that it never should have been trusted in the first place. It is all nonsense.

The internet doesn't work. Computers don't work. Cars don't work. Planes don't fly. The moon doesn't exist. Trans fats are totally healthy. The Earth is flat. 

Food science is relatively new, it's not surprising some studies report X and other studies report Y. Scientific inferences are merely best explanations for a given set of data. Given set A one team derives X, given set B another team derives Y.
