There's a lot of hype regarding artificial sweeteners, both good and bad. It is a good way to reduce calories while keeping a sweet taste, but if you're worried about it then just don't use it. It's important to remember that although some studies have shown that there could possibly be a mild link between sweetner and some forms of cancer, nothing has been proven. And aside from that, people have been using artificial sweetners for decades without any real issues.
So it's up to you, really. I'm not nervous about a bit of aspartame, personally but that's a decision I made.
