Sirkengubin is traditionally described as a mixture of vinegar and honey (sometimes with herbs). Even if historical usage is mentioned in old sources, it should not be treated as a universally safe “cure” in modern practice. Because it contains honey, people with diabetes or glucose sensitivity should be cautious. The vinegar component can also irritate those with reflux or gastritis. If someone wants to try it, keep the amount small, dilute well, and monitor tolerance. Prioritize safety and moderation over strong health claims.
