Oncologist Elena Zhukova noted that a standard smartphone emits high-frequency electromagnetic fields. “It negatively affects the body, the brain's overall function, and may contribute to the development of malignant tumors. Therefore, it is better to place the phone not on the nightstand by the bed, but much further away before sleeping,” warned the doctor.

The distance between a sleeping person and the smartphone should be more than 80 cm. Elena Zhukova recommended ideally leaving the device in another part of the room.
There is also an opinion that the influence of the phone on the development of oncology is exaggerated.
“According to a study conducted in 2022, it was found that radiation from smartphones does not have a direct impact on tumor formation. Scientists analyzed the health status of about a million women and found that using a smartphone under normal conditions does not increase the risk of brain cancer,” said the oncologist.
Nevertheless, Elena Zhukova still recommended using the phone moderately to minimize the impact of electromagnetic waves on the body.
