Once the microscope was invented it was possible to see tiny organisms which were later to be called bacteria.
In the mid 19th century two very famous researchers investigated the possible cause of disease arising through the action of these bacteria within the body.
Louis Pasteur (1822 – 1895) through his experiments promoted the mono-morphic “Germ Theory” where a certain bacteria, when entering the body, always produced the same disease.
A contemporary of his, Antoine Bechamp (1816 – 1908), through his experiments promoted the pleo-morphic “Terrain Theory” which stated that if the terrain or soil (the tissues) were dirty or congested it was the function of the bacteria to digest this material for excretion by the body.
So Pasteur was promoting the concept the germs were harmful to the body and Bechamp was promoting the concept that germs were beneficial for the body.
