You're so screwed if you create the time loop and then when you go back, you don't have god powers. One quarter of a groundhog day.

I would give laughter(genuine laughter) vast regenerative and disease-curing powers. Laughter would reverse the aging process, heal wounds and burns, cure cancer, blindness and paralysis and even regenerate lost organs.

You know, t'is true. If he doesn't have regular, repeated and/or aggrevated damage to the groin, it won't grow any new cells, and eventually will atrophy, decay, wither down to a mere Napoleon-like twig and fall off at the first slight breeze.

Assuming that using the power to gain myself an infinite use of such power is impossible, I would probably not use it until a time where I really needed it, probably to avoid death or to save someone from dying. I am very certain that I, or most of us, will end up in a situation where we will regret wasting this power stupidly.

I will not risk using it on the time loop scenario because of a self restoration paradox. If the loop does not restore me back into a earlier time, I won't regain the power upon returning to the loop. If it does, my mind would also be restore, losing all memory that this isn't the first time, and without this knowledge I will continue burn my power to the infinite loop over and over again.
