In 1735, Gaspar Casal of Spain described a disease he named mal de la rosa (sickness of the rose), which was spreading across Europe. Then, in 1771, the Italian physician Francesco Frapolli of Milan gave the same disease the name pellagra. At the time, Southern Europe depended on corn as a major food source, especially in the more impoverished populations. Pellagra was known by the four Ds, including dermatitis (skin rash), dementia, diarrhea and death.
