Has to be HTTP header of the requests? Cookies seems to be a good choice: https://stormpath.com/blog/where-to-store-your-jwts-cookies-vs-html5-web-storage/

By looking at HTTP documentation we have:

get(url: string, options?: RequestOptionsArgs) : Observable

Performs a request with get http method.

Going to RequestOptionsArgs we have:

headers : Headers

Not Yet Documented

Finally landing at Headers.

import {Headers} from 'angular2/http';
var secondHeaders = new Headers({
  'X-My-Custom-Header': 'Angular'
});

So it should be something like:

import {Response} from "angular2/http";
import {RequestOptionsArgs} from "angular2/http";
import {Headers} from "angular2/http";

let token:string = 'my-secret';
this.http.get('your/url',  {
    headers: new Headers({
        'X-My-JWT-Header': 'sweet'
    })
})

Looking at BaseRequestOptions documentation this is a way to attach this header to each request in automatic way.
