It seems like you have poor skin circulation and that is probably why magnesium helps you.
Magnesium causes vasodilatation.
It also inhibits release of histamine which reduces your itch.We are all different but 800 mg of magnesium is certainly not for everyone.
References on the Internet is always uncertain, especially when it comes to supplements since the industry and scientists only look at benefits. They never/rarely discuss risks.
In Europe they are actually taking steps to limit high dose pills, since improper self-medication is actually making people more sick and causing increased health care costs.
