No, it's actually because they don't work, or at least they don't work in the way you think, aren't feasible for a huge number of people (whose other health issues would prevent alkali blood interactions), can cause vicious side effects (including, of all things, liver and kidney cancer - how ironic), and etc etc etc.

Did you know that alkaline dieting was also considered the 'cure' for arthritis at one point, under very similar reasoning to your own?
