Of course they will not alkalize your body because lemons are not alkaline. 😂

It's about the by-products of digestion. People who believe in those diets think that eating foods that metabolize into alkaline components will alkalise their body. Eating lots of lemons will indeed turn your urine more alkaline but have near to no effect on your blood pH, as that would be an exceedingly dangerous thing to happen to a buffered system.
Btw. it's the kidney which regulates blood pH, the lungs do not regulate, they just inadvertently increase acidity due to dissolving CO2.
