a "potion" is a liquid/serum with magical powers that can heal someone, poison someone or cause someone to receive powers. it's often used in fairytales or spiritual practices.
a "portion" is a measurement of something.
- a "portion size" is how much you eat.
- 2 bowls of rice = 2 portions of rice.
- a "recommended portion size" is how much is recommended so you don't eat too much of something.

potion is a magical beverage, kinda like the one the sea witch gave to the little mermaid in the fairytale. portion is a unit with which you count the amount of food you've eaten (2 small portions of soup)
