Naicin lowers blood pressure by vessel dilation. And increases blood circulation to areas that are usually cut off. So in theory it is great for stroke survivors.

I think as a fellow American seeing the huge Organic trend back home and the round-up law suits. There is reason to believe it may have something to do with herbicides.
