Every day, you breathe nitrogen and oxygen along with many other gases. Helium is inert and poses no threat at all except if you breathe only helium and you deprive yourself of oxygen. In theory, any gas can be breathed in small concentrations since the concentration is what determines hazardous effects. Even Oxygen can kill you if it is in too high of a concentration.

Oxygen is not hazardous to breathe in low concentrations. In fact, it is essential for sustaining human life. Oxygen concentrations up to 21% in the air are considered safe for breathing.
