Avid hiker Adam “Griz” Ryan, who is legally blind, doesn’t let numerous physical ailments stop him conquering trails. In the video below, Griz, who lives on the Hawaiian island of Kaua’i and will be hiking the 500-mile Colorado Trail this summer,  talks about his problems and the things he’s tried to alleviate them.

Griz explains how an allergic reaction led to him losing all but 5 percent of his visual field. This means that he has extreme tunnel vision and everything outside of what he focuses on is completely blurred. He also suffers from ocular migraines, where his visual field reduces even further and is accompanied by extreme headaches, as well as Barrett’s Esophagus and needle-like pains in his hands and feet.

He has tried many different medications, vitamins and herbal supplements, such as turmeric and bromelain, as well as CBD. Hawaiian Choice is pleased to hear that he loves the taste and feel of our products. We hope you like seeing him talk about how Hawaiian Choice CBD tinctures, topical and vegan jellies are all infused with real organic or wild crafted Hawaiian fruits – pineapple, passion fruit, noni – and Hawaiian honey or essential oils of lemongrass and eucalyptus.

Take a look at his video below. It starts at the point where he starts talking about Hawaiian Choice, but you can rewind to the beginning of the video to hear his full explanation of how he went blind, his physical pains and the other things he’s tried.
