A member asked:
Are there effective herbal therapies to treat a listeria infection?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Lysteria infection: No. The only reliable treatment for a listeria infection, especially in a pregnant mother is medical therapy with antibiotic. Other herbals can be added to boost the immune system, but first thing is to destroy the infection. In pregnancy this is a medical emergency to try to save the baby.

Not really...: This post was already answered(and nicely so) by dr. Albert pizzo; please refer to it. Even if there were i would not recommend it; better to stick with more conventional treatments in this instance.
