PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a ceramide dispersion capable of being used in various fields, such as pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and dietary fields, by changing the ceramide slightly soluble in water into a water-soluble composition, scarcely causing isolation nor precipitation of the ceramide even when stored for a long period, capable of being kept in a uniformly and stably emulsified, dispersed or solubilized state, having excellent acid-resisting, salt-resisting and heat-resisting properties which are necessary when added to food and drink, capable of preventing the ceramide from depositing, precipitating, and floating in the food and drink and a cosmetic to which the dispersion is added, and having excellent transparency, to provide a method for producing the same, to provide the food and drink containing the same, and provide the cosmetic containing the same. SOLUTION: This ceramide dispersion is formed by dispersing the ceramide (A) in a water-based solvent, wherein an ester (B1) of a 8-10C fatty acid of a polyglycerol and another ester (B2) of a 12-18C fatty acid of the polyglycerol are combined to be used. |
