Male weanling BHE/cdb rats were fed either a whole-egg diet, a control diet, or a control diet that matched either the arginine or cholesterol content of the whole-egg diet. Glucose tolerance, renal function, cholesterol status, and urea cycle activity was assessed at 250 days of age. Neither the cholesterol content of the whole-egg diet nor its arginine content could explain the whole-egg diet effect on glucose tolerance, renal metabolism, or renal function. At 250 days of age BHE/cdb rats fed the whole-egg diet had a near normal glucose tolerance, whereas rats fed the other diets had impaired tolerance as well as impaired renal function. This diet difference might be attributable to either the vitamin A or lecithin content of the whole egg, but is not attributable to its arginine or cholesterol content.
