Outside of people with a rare genetic disorder known as phenylketonuria, phenylalanine and aspartic acid are generally safe to consume, since they're amino acids that exist in pretty much any protein source.
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an inborn error of metabolism involving impaired metabolism of the amino acid phenylalanine. Phenylketonuria is caused by absent or virtually absent phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) enzyme activity. The condition is also known as phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency.
