The redox reaction between NAD+ and NADH is essential for the creation of energy in the body via ATP - called cellular respiration.
Cellular respiration is a process of reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert chemical energy from oxygen molecules or nutrients to ATP.
When you eat food, your body goes through 3 phases for the food to become energy:
Glycolysis
Krebs Cycle
Electron Transport Chain
During the first two phases, NADH molecules will convert from NAD+ and in the third phase, NADH molecules divide into NAD+, helping produce H+ and two electrons.
The H+ is used to create energy as ATP which then merges with the electrons + molecule of oxygen to produce water.
The greatest production of ATP happens in the 3rd phase (electron transport chain), but all 3 phases produce ATP.
