HORRIBLE Protein Bullet !!!!!
unless you like the "pins and needles" effect all over your skin for the next hour after you drink it 
It is made by CNP an is NOT the one made by IDS even though it looks like it. I picked up 2 at GNC for my vacation trip since I was there buying the OSTrim beef sticks and thought I was getting the IDS New Whey ones.
Anyway, after a long hike to Hanging Lake I drank one of these. It only has 27 gms protein so I just sipped it slowly w/o diluting it. After about 10 minutes my skin started *****ling and I got a "pins and needles" all over my body !!! Thankfully, I wasn't driving. I thought it might be from the altitude and being dehydrated since it was our first hike but when I got back I googled this drink and this is what I found:

"About 5 to 10 minutes after you drink down Protein Slam (or our new Pro GF with beta-Alanine), you may notice that your skin has begun to tingle or it*****ertain spots. Do not panic! This is a normal body reaction to beta-Alanine consumption."
IT IS SUPPOSED TO MAKE YOU ITCH ALL OVER !!!!
Unless you like being tortured........ do this when you see this product --->

But I can think of a lot better ways to get my protein in. Scared the CRAP outta me! 
ok...I'm weird...I LIKE the "pins and needles" thing...I looked for niacin in the link info-it doesn't actually mention it as such, but I bet you got a "niacin flush", without the flush. I get those when I have to rely on those lil 2oz energy shots to get me thru the long work night...that "pins and needles" keeps me awake..maybe that's why I like it...anyhoo...SARAH-sorry you had a bad experience!!
