The correct answer is

On

The verb "focus" takes the preposition "on" when naming the target of attention — "focus on something" is the fixed collocation. "Focus of" pairs with the noun "focus", not the verb; "focus for" is non-idiomatic; "focus off" would mean diverting attention away, which contradicts the sentence's meaning.

Hence: "Focus on what you need for your body."
