The controversial problems with aspartame are about what it is broken down into.

Phenylalanine is the major amino acid breakdown product. This is seriously dangerous to people with the rare metabolic disorder called phenylketonuria. These people should never have aspartame because their bodies can not break down phenylalanine, and it becomes poisonous to their nervous systems. Phenylalanine is also the precursor for dopamine and adrenaline, and there has been some debate about its effects there.

For all the information you need, go to wikipedia here:

Supposedly Aspartame is linked to generalized pain, but most of the claims that is causes cancer or heart disease, etc. have been proven false in thousands of studies. If you can stomach the unpalatable aftertaste, I'm pretty sure you're safe.

phenylalanine is an essential amino acid. when aspatame breaks down, it takes form of phenylalanine. like most anything, too much of it can be a bad thing.

p.s. it kills brain cells? really?
