Abstract

Lips and oral cavity cancer is caused by an uncontrolled division of abnormal cells in a part of the body or malignant growth resulting from an uncontrolled division of cells or tissues of the oral. Globocan reported in Afghanistan in 2020 that 22 817 people of both sexes have taken cancer, lips, and oral cancer, the sixth position out of  38928341  population in Afghanistan. Globocan reported in 2020 that  Lip-oral cavity cancer comes in the third position among males In Afghanistan. From 10 528 Male patients in Afghanistan Number of new cancer cases in 2020, lip and oral cavity was 5.9 percent, Globacon reported.   Factors in Afghanistan that can increase the highest risk of lip and oral cavity cancer include tobacco, heavy alcohol use, and dietary intake. The risk of lip and oral cavity cancer is about 5 to 10 times greater among smokers than among people who never smoked. Foods such as fruits, vegetables, curcumin, and green tea can also reduce the risk of slips and oral cavity cancer, while the so-called pro-inflammatory diet, rich in red meat and fried foods, can enhance the risk of occurrence. On the other hand, recent research demonstrated that a high intake of anti-inflammatory index decreases the risk of lip and oral cavity cancer among the adult population.
