Struggling with yellow, thick, or brittle toenails? Toenail fungus is stubborn—but you don’t need harsh chemicals to fight it. This simple home remedy using lemon and baking soda is completely natural, easy to prepare, and helps fight the infection gently but effectively.
Used consistently, it can clean, protect, and restore your nails, all from ingredients you probably already have at home.
🍋 Why Lemon?
Lemon juice is:
- Naturally antifungal and antibacterial
- Rich in citric acid, which helps cleanse and lighten discolored nails
- A natural deodorizer for smelly feet or nails
- Gentle yet effective in breaking down fungal growth
🥄 Why Baking Soda?
Baking soda helps by:
- Neutralizing pH, making it hard for fungus to survive
- Exfoliating dead skin and fungal buildup
- Drying excess moisture—fungus thrives in damp areas
