All I can tell you is that the tart cherry juice works wonders when my hubby has gout.  Takes maybe a day or two for relief.  I would assume there would be some heat used in processing the juice, but I don't know that for sure.  If there is, and it still works this well, then your butter product would probably do the same.  :)

  PS  Where do you get this stuff???  It sounds lovely!!!

  Does anyone know if the anti-inflammation properties of tart cherries is 
destroyed when the cherries are cooked? I ask because Eden has a tart 
cherry "butter" product -- only ingredient is tart cherries -- NO added 
sweetners, juice etc. It's basically pureed and cooked tart cherries. I 
put a teaspoonful on my steak last night -- wonderful!
