Mobile phones have become an integral part of life for most people. And who thought about the harm of mobile phones to health?

This may seem like a myth or a children's horror story, but everything is not so clear-cut, so it is worth understanding why you should not leave your mobile phone near your bed.

Why You Shouldn't Sleep Near Your Mobile Phone

Some people may say that modern devices meet all safety requirements. Of course, there will be no significant changes in the body immediately, but they accumulate gradually. There is a simple rule: the distance to the mobile device during sleep should be 1 meter.

Sleeping with it in your arms or putting it under your bed is definitely not a good idea. This rule also applies to wireless headphones.

Any phone emits electromagnetic radiation, as it constantly tries to contact communication towers. People with pacemakers should definitely not keep their phone near them, as the device can interfere with normal operation.

Here are some basic tips for safe mobile use.

  1. It is important to develop a habit of not taking your mobile phone before going to bed. It is difficult to give up the habit, but mobile phones do more harm than good. You can look at the news or social networks in the morning. But at night, your eyes get tired faster and additional irritation is provoked.
  2. Harm to the nervous system. Watching news and social networks will not bring anything good to the life of any person.
  3. It is recommended to charge your phone in the far corner of the room.

Tips for using a mobile phone are trivial, but they should be taken seriously.
