How many pounds of ATP is recycled in the body?
Fortunately, ATP is recycled within the body. The typical daily requirement for an adult is over 140 pounds of ATP per day. However, the amount of ATP present in our body at any one time is only about one-tenth of a pound. That means each ATP molecule in our body is recycled about 1,400 times each day. Now that is effective recycling — and we don’t even have to put anything into a blue container.
