There's the book Toxic Superfoods, great info. You can also listen to some interviews with the author, she's great.
There's a condition called oxalate dumping, which can hit people who go full carnivore (which has zero oxalates). Your body is getting rid of the toxin - oxalates - which is causing damage in many places. But the process itself can cause issues.

Thanks for the information. The top of the list has a lot of the foods I thought were the healthiest.
Have you ever had kidney stones?

Not kidney stones, but I've had some other oxalate related symptoms. There's a lot of them. Oxalates are far more dangerous than people think.
Interestingly, oxalates first came up as an issue when rhubarb (which has a lot of oxalates) became a fad, in the early 1800's. People ate a lot of rhubarb pastries, and developed oxalate toxicity symptoms.
