Jasmine helpers in Protractor

Jasmine offers way to run helper files before specs using its helpers option. I wanted to use a helper file to add a global beforeEach call, so all tests run this before they are started. But I somehow fail to find the way to do this using protractor (that uses Jasmine).

How can I add helpers option for jasmine in Protractor. Can I somewhere specify Jasmine's options?

Also, here is a relevant topic on the subject of sharing the beforeEach() setup across specs:
