Jamu is a traditional herbal medicine, which is made from parts of plant either from its roots, leaves, fruit and also bark; such as tamarind, turmeric, ginger, papaya leaf, curcuma and also bratawali. Some of jamu tastes sweet but some of them taste very bitter.
As I understand, there are many type of jamu which are specifically made to cure illness such as stiffness, dizziness, fever, high cholesterol, itching, diabetes and hepatitis. While there are also some of jamu are made to improve sexual pleasure either to increase men sex drive such as purwoceng and tongkat ali and also to tighten the women’s vagina such as galian rapat, rapat wangi or empot ayam.

A traditional homade jamu seller was making a glass of galian rapat, which is believed to tighten [2012: E O]
Other than that, despite the fact there are many instant jamu sold in the pharmacy or supermarket, I would not buy it because it does not have the same taste as the homemade jamu. I just want a real homemade jamu. Period!
Therefore whenever I visit Yogyakarta, I often try to go to Pasar Pujokusuman to buy a homemade jamu from an old lady, who has been selling for many years [unfortunately, I have never asked what her name is] . She always is concocting the remedy as the customer order the jamu so she can make a fresh glass of jamu for the customer.

‘I would not make jamu galian rapat for unmarried woman’ said a traditional homemade jamu seller [2012: E O]
I wonder if she would ask a male customer, who wants to buy purwoceng or tongkat ali jamu [type of jamu which is believed to increase male sex drive], the same questions. *sigh*
Well I guess as I am living in a ‘religious’ country, consuming galian rapat, rapat wangi or empot ayam is considered to be sinful if you are not married because it is then letting somebody to do a free sex with a good quality vagina. But who gives a damn about it anyway?! You can always lie about your marital status just for a glass of homemade jamu. No?
So if you have never tried to drink jamu or you wanna tighten your vagina or increase the sex drive, you better try it. I can tell you that it works well to my body. Other than that, it tastes good and very cheap.

why is jamu seen as sinful, or is it simply what it is to be used for? Surely, if you’re married, wanting to heighten your and your husband’ssexual experience is not a sin.
Akh… I forgot to mention earlier that it is considered to drink a certain type of jamu that helps to improve sexual pleasure, in this case galian rapat or rapat wangi for unmarried woman because it is similar to let a woman to do a free sex or have sex before married.
But it is fine for married woman to drink galian rapat or rapat wangi because it is believed to improve a quality of sex life for the couple. = )
Interesting health piece will love to try the purwoceng? Do i have to go to yoyakarta please advise ,is urgent.
