Lemon belongs to alkaline food. But because lemon contains citric acid, most people mistakenly think that lemon is an acidic food. It belongs to alkaline food, because lemon contains citric acid, but citric acid is completely metabolized in the body to produce carbon dioxide and water, and the acidity is eliminated with the carbon dioxide exhaled in the body, so it is called "alkaline food".
