I have bee conducting some research on Hyperkalemia which is a conditio;n
caused by higher than normal levels of potassium in the bloodstream.

The article that read states
Excess potassium in the blood stream can cause Acidosis (acidic condition
of the body).

Does lemon juice help eliminate the acidic condition in the body?

Since lemon juice is acidic, expecting it reduce the "acidic condition
in the body" (acidosis is a very serious condition, not something
that's lurking in you) would be like expecting lighter fluid to
extinguish a barbecue.
