The link you gave is full of idiotic statements:
"digestive enzymes work in the pancreas to properly break the food down"
No, food is not broken down in the pancreas.
"Unfortunately, cooking and processing methods destroy enzymes in our food that are so necessary for proper digestion."
Food does not provide digestive enzymes. They are made by the body.
"Our bodies can't manufacture enough of the right ones. As a result, our bodies attempt to compensate by withdrawing enzymes needed for digestion from its own "bank". Over time, these heavy withdrawals coupled with skimpy deposits lead to a bankrupt digestive system"
Most people make a perfectly satisfactory level of digestive enzymes. Their bank accounts are just fine.
"Meat needs large amounts of acid to be broken down. Without adequate stomach acid it rots in the intestine"
No. Just, no. 
"Without your gall bladder, the liver will still produce bile, but the bile will leak inside you because it will not have a proper place to go."
No, bile will not "leak inside you". It still goes into the intestine, which is the "proper place to go".
"Do You Need Your Gallblatter?"
No, I never had one. Someone who cannot spell gallbladder has no business talking about it.
"The probable after-effects of gallbladder surgery are never discussed with the patient"
False. Anyone having gallbladder surgery will have to sign a consent which spells out the risks. Every patient should make sure he understands what to expect from any surgery.
"Some patients suffer from dumping syndrome, in which food is 'dumped' too quickly into the intestines from the stomach."
This is a problem after some stomach surgery, not gallbladder surgery.

Your article recommends:
"• Every four months a liver cleanse
[$21.00 per each] or flush should be performed. People without gallbladders may develop stones in the liver which will lead to a sluggish liver. Remember that the liver is the main filter of the body.
• Colon cleanse - Two times a year.
[$21.50 per each]
• Digestive Enzymes with Ox Bile ... for life"
[$27.00 for 60, to take one or more with each meal; at three per day a bottle will only last 20 days: 18.25 bottles
per year is $492.75]
Add a probiotic, once a day,
$27.50 for 60.
That's $763.75 per year for all of the "supps".
None of those are needed, even if they really contain what the label claims - and they very well may not.
"An Easy Way to Evaluate Stomach Acid" is sheer hogwash.
Once again you have linked to a website that is full of misinformation (downright lies, actually) that exists only to sell "supps" that people do not need.
The author also sells this nifty little device:
Does Quantum Resonance Spectrometry Work? - Neuroskeptic
Also, jewelry to protect against "EMF".
Pure quackery.

Who the H cares about the tanning salon, why keep bringing that up? There are 1000's upon 1000's articles from no tanning salons...

Anyone who proposes a "healing method" should be required to demonstrate that it actually heals.
The source of your link was challenged because the person writing it has absolutely no credentials to be making any medical recommendations. The level of ignorance about human physiology in the article is astounding.
