Yes, it is a member of the same family of grains as wheat. Avoid rye if you have coeliac disease.

The grains in question are wheat, rye, barley, kamut, spelt, and triticale. There are other grains that have gluten but not the same type that causes a reaction in Celiac patients, such as corn.

If you have a wheat allergy, not coeliac, you CAN have rye.
