So why people with diabetes are more prone to developing Alzheimer's disease? Shouldn't it have the opposite effect since they're synthesizing less beta amyloid?

Enlighten me on “shouldn’t it have the opposite effect.” I’m not saying you’re wrong I just don’t understand it to work that way. I could be completely wrong, it’s been a long while since I’ve looked over the mechanisms if any are known.
