Alois Bednar discerned 3 grades (dyspepsia, diarrhea, and cholera) of the same disease. Infants' neurologic symptoms were interpreted as alimentary toxicosis. Chronic diarrhea caused emaciation and dehydration. In 1950, Laurence Finberg found diarrhea with hypernatremia causing cerebral damage. Seasonal influence was known since Hippocrates. Baudelocque recommended obtaining infant milk fresh from the cow because it decomposes in the summer heat. In the cities, summer diarrhea caused a third of total infant mortality. Physicians debated whether heat acted directly on the infant or spoiled the food. The discovery of microorganisms in the 1860s revolutionized medical understanding. However, influential researchers such as Adalbert Czerny classified nutritional disturbances by assumed pathogenesis (\"ex alimentation, ex infection, ex constitution\"), but denied the possibility of bacterial infection via milk.
