Also, if you've got a problem with candida, then raising the pH of the
digestive tract (by taking baking soda, etc.) will cause them to thrive.  See:

Also see this discussion:

So I'd be cautious about the whole "you need to be more alkaline" line
of thinking.  You may end up worse when trying to do something to
make you better.
