It was a long, rambling, and rather ill-sorted video, but I gathered that you need safe exposure to the sun (UVB--without burning) in order to create Vitamin D on the surface of your skin, and it takes up to 48 hours for your body to absorb, so if you shower with soap, you wash it away.

He gently suggested that you shower with water only, and wash the most important areas.

Just a side note, but if you do get too much sun, it's best to wait a bit (8-10 hours) before showering anyway, else your burn will be a LOT worse. The oils in your skin can help soothe a sunburn, and washing those oils away too soon is a bad idea. Or at least, bathe in cool water, without using soap on the burnt areas.

You are correct! Also he stated that wash under the arms and other areas that need it with soap the rest with water. Pretty simple really!

Also the KEY thing on the video is the aspect of proper UV light that you get.

per his site...

As you no doubt know, exposure to sunlight causes vitamin D to be produced in your skin. But it is only a portion of the solar spectrum known as UVB that has this effect. Other parts of the solar spectrum can have very different results.

Malignant melanoma has been increasing at an exponential rate in indoor workers since before 1940. The reason may be indoor exposure to UVA radiation. Unlike UVB, which is blocked by glass, UVA can pass through windows.

UVA can cause cancerous mutations, and can also break down vitamin D formed after outdoor UVB exposure. And vitamin D is a potent defense against melanoma -- melanoma cells convert it to calcitriol, which causes growth inhibition and apoptotic cell death in vitro and in vivo. New research shows that increased UVA exposures and inadequately maintained cutaneous levels of vitamin D promote melanoma.
