You will need to save the body child nodes as HTML. I suggest using Xpath to fetch the nodes, this avoids the outer loop: 

$html = <<<'HTML'
<html>
  <body>
    Foo
    <p>Bar</p>
  </body>
</html>
HTML;

$document = new DOMDocument();
$document->loadHtml($html);
$xpath = new DOMXpath($document);

$result = '';
foreach ($xpath->evaluate('//body/node()') as $node) {
  $result .= $document->saveHtml($node);
}
var_dump($result);

Output:

string(29) "
    Foo
    <p>Bar</p>
  "
