I think they mentioned something to this effect in the study, i.e. that other beneficial plant compounds were not included for that reason.
For instance, oysters top their list because they contain high amounts of Zinc, Selenium, B-12 and Vitamin D (all of which have some evidence linking them to decreased depression rates) as well as significant amounts of several other important minerals and vitamins. Plus Omega-3 fats and protein.
