A process is described for producing adsorbates suitable for human or animal nutrition and also cosmetics applications in which a component (A) to be adsorbed is applied to a carrier (C) using at least one stabilizer (B), the mean particle size of the carrier (C) being at least 80 μm, with the proviso that, if the component (A) to be adsorbed is vitamin E, the mixture of (A) and (B) has an HLB value less than 7, and also with the proviso that if the component (A) to be adsorbed is an oil-soluble vitamin and the stabilizer (B) is a glyceride, the freezing point of the mixture of (A) and (B) is below or equal to 80° C. A description is also given of the use of the adsorbates which are thus obtainable.
