Baking soda is an organic base, which means it does not relate to blood alkalinity, just like lemon juice is acid but is considered an alkaline in the body. You have to look at the ash. It will react in the stomach with the HCl giving CO2, water and NaCl. Thus it will act as an acid until the CO2 is expelled, then it will be neutral once in the blood as salt and water.
