question about aspartame in protein shakes

[Veretta9]

I have been taking Syntrax's Matrix 5.0 protein, the stuff tastes unbelievable. The only problem is that the flavoring comes from aspartame. I hear that aspartame is like poison for your body, does anyone know if this is true and how bad it really is? I want to buy more of this protein but am extremely hesitant due to the aspartame.
