Celery contains a lot of oxalate, which is a natural plant toxin (to protect from been eaten by humans and animals), which affects us, it does build up in the body. People eating a lot of green,  (but also seeds and nuts, among other).
I've had problem with too much oxalates, this is something people were not aware or talking about before, but more and more people are suffering from high oxalates level. And many people people who are, don't know about it.
Another small detail: the vegetable part of the plant (in opposite to the fruit, root or tuber), is the part that will more easily absorb heavy metals from soil. If eating a lot green, veg, herbs, be sure it's organic.
Cilantro is said to be great for us with mercury overload as it binds with the heavy metal in our body, but it will also absorb the poison very easily in the soil, and so sharing it with you when you ingest it.
