AHCC, Mushrooms & Immune Intelligence: What Every Body Needs to Know with Mimi Lindquist
In this episode, host Jillian sits down with Mimi Lindquist , founder of The Medicin and co-host of The Medicin Podcast — a holistic wellness brand dedicated to educating people about the power of functional mushrooms, specifically AHCC (Active Hexose Correlated Compound). Mimi is also a licensed dental hygienist turned wellness entrepreneur whose personal healing journey led her to become one of the most passionate and informed voices on mushroom-based immune support. Together, Jillian and Mimi explore AHCC's unique ability to balance — not simply "boost" — the immune system, making it relevant for everything from everyday wellness to serious illness. Jillian also shares her own personal experience using AHCC to support her MS diagnosis and her son's eczema, making this a deeply personal and practical conversation. 💫 what you’ll hear in this episode: What AHCC actually is: a patented, fermented mycelial extract from hybridized shiitake mushrooms The difference between mushroom fruiting bodies and mycelium, and why it matters How AHCC activates and supports natural killer (NK) cells in the immune system Why AHCC is adaptogenic — balancing immune function rather than just "boosting" it AHCC for autoimmune conditions including MS, RA, Crohn's, and Sjögren's syndrome Using AHCC for HPV, eczema, Lyme disease, liver disease, and cancer support Safe and effective dosing for healthy adults, children, and pets Why quality matters and how ImmuneIntel AHCC differs from generic brands Mimi's pregnancy journey and expanding the narrative around natural birth The role of morning routines, nature connection, and journaling in self-care Your body is always communicating with you — not through diagnosis codes or lab numbers, but through symptoms, sensations, and a quiet inner knowing. Before reaching for the next prescription, the next protocol, or the next answer outside of yourself, pause and ask: What has my body been trying to tell me that I haven't been willing to hear? Healing is not just a physical process — it begins the moment you choose to trust the intelligence already living inside you.
