- "And this leaves you with the Girding Potion which may be consumed to increase one's endurance for a considerable number of weeks. I do warn those of you who wish to experiment with this potion that the maximum dosage is no more than two of these vials."
- — Severus Snape.[src]
The Girding Potion is a Potion that gives the consumer extra endurance. It presumably has a rather foul odour, as Hermione Granger noted when making it in 1996.

Etymology
From the English "to gird" which can mean one of three things: to encircle or bind with a belt or band; to surround, enclose or hem in; to prepare oneself for action[2]. The latter is probably the intended meaning, a reference to its effects.
