I read this article on facebook and NPR. There is no way. This article
needs further scientific review. Every lifeform on Earth uses ATP/ADP
to energy consuption. Aerobically through the kreb cycle and
anaerobically through the Glyconase shunt. If respiration involced
glocose, then Phosphate must be used.
