Aspertame poising?

I recently read the Canada Health Website. It said that only individuals with phenylketonuria could be affected and poisened by aspertame. I am wondering your guys' thoughts about this because I have almost none of the PKU symptoms and in fact have an IQ of 140. The only symptom I seem to show is the fact that I was poisened by aspertame and the fact that I have blond hair (medium by the way) which I probably inherited from my Mom.
