Toenail fungus requires an acidic environment to grow. Sodium borate and baking soda are both alkaline and, when applied to the infected toenail, lower the acidity, preventing the fungus from growing. Together, these two are a powerful natural treatment. Create a paste by mixing equal parts of baking soda and sodium borate with a small amount of water. Massage the mixture onto the infected foot three or four times a week. Continue after the fungus has cleared for about four weeks to keep it from coming back.
