Hmmm, a brief search reveals this; https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3195546/

I'm not really equipped to review, but it does make some interesting points that while the body strongly maintains blood PH of between 7.35 and 7.45 the mechanisms of doing this can cause more stress on other systems in the body depending on your diet. It's also interesting that we used to have pre agriculture a 10:1 rather than a 1:3 K:Na balance.

Anyway, the article is an interesting read - maybe supply some counter evidence that Alkaline diets have zero supporting evidence.
