YES: Inhaling combustion products and especially tobacco, increase numerous diseases and health disorders. The best way to avoid or decrease the health risk is lifestyle modification = exercise, eat better, and do not use combustion inhalant products and tobacco products.

Bad - Yes: Per the Mayo Clinic: Per Dr. T Hays- " Hookah smoke contains high levels of toxic compounds, including tar, carbon monoxide, heavy metals & cancer-causing chemicals (carcinogens). In fact, hookah smokers are exposed to more carbon monoxide & smoke than are cigarette smokers." REF: https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/quit-smoking/expert-answers/hookah/faq-20057920.
