Unfortunately the notion that lemons can change the pH (acidity or alkalinity) of blood is nonsense!

The pH of blood is highly regulated to keep it within a very narrow range 7.35-7.45 which is close to the pH of water (7.0). If the pH of blood falls outside this very narrow range serious illness and perhaps fatal effects may occur.

Even if you ate a bushel of lemons it won't change the alkalinity of your blood
