This month, the British Nutrition Foundation is encouraging children and young people to improve their knowledge, skills, confidence and motivation to explore healthier snack choices: https://www.nutrition.org.uk/snack-tember-2026/

For neurodivergent children and young people, eating habits can vary considerably. Sensory preferences, routines, safe foods and individual needs can all influence what someone is able or comfortable to eat, so there is no one-size-fits-all approach to food.

Y mis hwn, mae British Nutrition Foundation yn annog plant a phobl ifanc i wella eu gwybodaeth, eu sgiliau, eu hyder a'u cymhelliant i archwilio dewisiadau byrbrydau iachach: https://www.nutrition.org.uk/snack-tember-2026/

I blant a phobl ifanc niwrowahanol, gall arferion bwyta amrywio'n sylweddol. Gall dewisiadau synhwyraidd, arferion, bwydydd diogel ac anghenion unigol i gyd ddylanwadu ar yr hyn y mae rhywun yn gallu neu'n gyfforddus i'w fwyta, felly nid oes un dull sy'n addas i bawb o ran bwyd.
