The lower calories in gingersnaps make them a healthier alternative to other cookies, but they also have additional benefits. For example, ginger, cinnamon, and clove contain anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. They may also help combat heart disease. Cinnamon helps lower the bloodstream's glucose levels; ginger aids digestion; and cloves can also help prevent oral diseases and headaches.

Gingersnaps come in a variety of shapes and sizes around the world. It's similar to a sugar cookie in America, but in Scandinavia, it's more like a wafer.
