Health Risks
Listeria can cause a serious infection known as listeriosis, particularly dangerous for pregnant women, newborns, the elderly, and those with weakened immune systems. Symptoms of listeriosis include fever, muscle aches, and gastrointestinal issues, and the infection can lead to severe complications such as meningitis or septicemia. In pregnant women, listeria can result in miscarriage, premature delivery, or severe illness in the newborn.
