  In this paper we study a class of wormhole solutions called generalized
Ellis-Bronnikov wormholes in the context of asymptotically safe gravity (ASG).
These solutions are characterized by two parameters: an even number $n$ and the
wormhole throat radius $r_t$. The particular case $n=2$ recovers the usual
Ellis-Bronnikov spacetime, which has already been addressed in the literature.
We analyzed the nature of matter in the wormhole's throat, and in nearby
regions, of these generalized solutions with $n>2$, using three curvature
scalars in the ASG approach, namely, the Ricci scalar, squared Ricci and the
Kretschmann scalar. We have shown that the ASG leads to corrections in the
matter at the wormhole's throat only for the $n=4$ case. For the squared Ricci
and the Kretschmann we find that exotic matter is always necessary, as
previously found for the usual Ellis-Bronnikov. However, for the Ricci scalar
case, we found that ordinary matter is allowed at the throat. Therefore, the
generalized Ellis-Bronnikov wormhole provides to the possibility of having
ordinary matter at the throat in the context of asymptotically safe gravity.
